Etymology: Phono-semantic compound (形聲/形声) : semantic 石 (“stone”) + phonetic 圭 (guī). An orthographic borrowing from Japanese 硅(けい)素(そ) (keiso) (Wu, 2010); pronunciation from its phonetic part 圭 (guī) (ibid.), in turn from Dutch keiaarde (“silicon”). The usage of 矽 (xī) is dated in Mainland China as it is homophonous to 硒 (xī) "selenium" and 錫/锡 (xī) "tin". In Taiwan, these three words are not homophonous. 1933 work 化學命名原則 says: : Silicon舊譯一作硅,一作矽,硅由日名珪素孳演而成,因爲固體,故改王旁爲石;於義既無可取,不如用諧聲之矽。 [Classical Chinese, trad.]Silicon旧译一作硅,一作矽,硅由日名珪素孳演而成,因为固体,故改王旁为石;于义既无可取,不如用谐声之矽。 [Classical Chinese, simp.] From: 1933, 國立編譯館, 化學命名原則 Silicon jiù yì yī zuò guī, yī zuò xī, guī yóu rì míng guīsù zīyǎn ér chéng, yīn wèi gùtǐ, gù gǎi wáng páng wèi shí; yú yì jì wú kěqǔ, bùrú yòng xiéshēng zhī xī.
