Parasol (繖葢): Has the fanqie *shān* + *lǎn* (繖). The lower character is the standard form of 盖. A parasol (繖葢) shades the body. [糸*(林/肉)*(敲-高)] is simply 葢 (canopy); it is derived from 糸 with 𣀙 as phonetic. The character 葢 originally derives from 艸 (grass) and 益; its current popular form derived from 羊 (sheep) is an error. The scripture's variant forms 傘 and 盖 are neither of them standard characters.
