Etymology

糞 combines 米 (rice) with 異 (unusual, different), likely suggesting the transformation of food into waste. The exact historical development is uncertain.

Meaning mnemonic

Rice 米 goes through an unusual 異 process in the body and comes out as something very different: feces.

Reading mnemonic

For フン, imagine the sound of something heavy dropping: 'fun!' The fun sound cues フン while the rice turns into waste.
