The kanji 那 is a phono-semantic compound (形声文字, keisei moji). The phonetic component is 内 (nai), meaning "inside", and the semantic component is 邑 (mura) or 阝(ko-mura), referring to "a place" or "a village". The character originally represented a place name, and the "那" part provides the sound element. Over time, it developed its broader meaning of "that" or "what".
