Etymology

璵 combines 王 (jade) with 與, which likely contributes the sound ヨ. The character refers to a specific type of beautiful jade.

Meaning mnemonic

The left side 王 is jade, and the right side 與 looks like a pair of hands holding something precious. Picture hands carefully presenting a piece of beautiful jade.

Reading mnemonic

For ヨ, imagine a beautiful jade ornament shaped like a yo-yo: yo -> ヨ, and the jade yo-yo sparkles as it spins.
