Etymology

The exact historical development of 芴 is uncertain. It visually combines the grass radical 艹 with 勿, but the original meaning and component relationship are unclear.

Meaning mnemonic

The top 艹 suggests grass or plants, and the bottom 勿 is a shape often associated with negation or a bound object. Without a clear meaning, picture a rare, unnamed plant wrapped in a bundle.

Reading mnemonic

For ブツ, imagine a botanist discovering this rare plant and muttering 'Buts?' in confusion: Buts -> ブツ, as they try to identify the unknown grass.
