• 字形与起源：“使”与“史”为本字。“史”源自甲骨文，形象为手持旗帜的使者，寓意出使谈判或传命之人。在古代，持旗为使者特征，相当于国与国之间的通行证。 Etymology and Origin: “使” shares its root with “史” (historian/envoy). In oracle bone script, it depicted a person holding a flag, representing an envoy or messenger. In ancient times, holding a flag symbolized one’s authority as a government envoy (like a passport).
