Etymology
The exact historical development of 肹 is uncertain. It visually contains ⺼ (flesh) and 兮, but the original component relationships are unclear.
Meaning mnemonic
With no clear meaning, focus on the shape: flesh ⺼ beside a breath-like 兮. Imagine a fleeting bodily sensation, but treat the meaning as unknown.
Reading mnemonic
For ヒ, imagine a soft breath (ひ) escaping from the 兮 side, like a whisper from the flesh.
