This is an ideogram formed by two pictograms: on the left side 衤 seems like another Chinese character 衣 ( means clothes ) and on the right side is ( means knife ). Combined, these elements suggest using a knife to tailor new clothes, which in turn stands for the "beginning" of the process of making clothes. Gradually, it was generalized to mean "the beginning" of all things. The left side 衤 is the radical of this character, Chinese characters under this radical almost relate to "clothes", for example, 袖 means sleeve, 衫 means shirt.
