Etymology
齺 combines 齒 (tooth) with 芻, which likely contributes a phonetic element. The exact historical development is uncertain, and the original meaning may relate to teeth or chewing, but no clear definition survives in modern usage.
Meaning mnemonic
The left side 齒 suggests teeth, and the right side 芻 looks like a bundle of grass. Imagine a tooth chewing on rough grass, but the kanji's meaning is unclear.
Reading mnemonic
For シュウ, picture a tooth (齒) chewing on a shoe (シュウ) made of grass (芻): shoe -> シュウ, though the kanji's meaning is uncertain.
