In Oracle Bone Inscriptions, the word "boat" has hieroglyphics on the left, which looks like a boat, and Chinese characters on the right, indicating that someone is driving on the boat. This combination together forms a recognition word, indicating that someone is driving on the boat.
With the development of Chinese characters, in the period of Xiao Zhuan, the boat character on the left became the boat character, and the herringbone on the right did not change. This combination together forms a Chinese character with a left-right structure.
During the official script period, the word ship was still on the left, but the herringbone on the right became a type, which looked like a fish swimming in the water. This combination together forms a Chinese character with a left-right structure.
During the regular script period, the left side of the word boat was still the word boat, but the font on the right side became a combination of several+mouths, which looked like a person shouting. This combination together forms the word boat that we are writing now.
