Etymology

詶 combines 言 (speech) with 州, which likely contributes the sound. The exact historical development is uncertain.

Meaning mnemonic

With 言 (speech) and 州 (sandbank), imagine words flowing like a river around a sandbank—perhaps a curse or a chant, but the meaning is uncertain.

Reading mnemonic

For シュウ, picture a shoe (シュー) being cursed with words: shoe -> シュウ, and the speech radical 言 delivers the curse.
