The character developed from the image of a drooping full beard . More likely it is a man with a beard attached to his chin; the dash is the mouth . The seal script form shows the lower part of a nose (now the upper horizontal line) and including two U-shaped by hanging below whiskers (that is, a Chinese beard, long and thin). The mask was very important in Chinese theater. The spectator of an opera could already recognize the role of the person depicted from the mask. To attach a beard therefore means “recite”.

As a single sign, 而 is used today as a conjunction. The Xiandai Hanyu Cidian (现代 汉语 词典) and the Xinhua dictionary do not use 而 as a radical, it is to be looked up there under the horizontal line 一 (横).
