What do you mean by pronunciation?

Thirdly, the first-class Chinese word, pronounced as or, was first seen in Oracle Bone Inscriptions. Its original meaning is fetus, or it may be a sacrifice to children.

Later, it was extended to refer to the heir, as the sixth of the twelve branches. It can also represent the "snake" and termination in the Chinese zodiac (that is, the so-called "Ye Si" in Shuo Wen Jie Zi) and so on.

From the word meaning, the original meaning of the word "heir" is "fetus", or it may be "offering sacrifices to children", which is extended to the meaning of "heir". Later, it was borrowed as "the sixth place in the twelve earthly branches" to coordinate with the heavenly stems to mark the year, month, day and time, or it may be the meaning of "snake" in the twelve zodiac signs.
