The kanji 尿 is a 形声文字 (keisei moji), a phono-semantic compound character. It is composed of the radical 尸 (し, shī) meaning "corpse" or "body" which is on the left side, and the phonetic character 壬 (じん, jin) on the right side. The character 壬 itself originally depicted a pregnant woman, then developed to represent a concept of water or liquid. Thus, 尿 originally indicated the liquid excreted from the body.
