Chinese

Glyph origin
Characters in the same phonetic series (肰) (Zhengzhang, 2003) 
Old Chinese
嘫 *rneːn
然 *njen
肰 *njen
繎 *njon, *njen
燃 *njen
蹨 *njenʔ, *neːnʔ
橪 *njenʔ, *ʔneːn
撚 *neːnʔ

Phono-semantic compound (形聲／形声, OC *njen) : semantic 火 (“fire”) + phonetic 然 (OC *njen) – burn with fire. Originally 然 (OC *njen), but because it was phonetically borrowed for abstract senses, 火 (huǒ) was added for differentiation.

Etymology

Probably Sino-Tibetan; compare Jingpho nan (“to light”), shanan (“torch”) (Schuessler, 2007).
