寄 — roof 宀 + strange 奇 (phonetic)
A semantic-phonetic compound: the roof radical 宀 suggests a dwelling or shelter, while 奇 (qí) supplies the sound, shifted to jì. The original sense was to lodge or stay temporarily under someone's roof, which extended to entrusting, depositing, and eventually sending or mailing things to another's care.
与 — hand 𠂇 + give/tusks 牙-like element
与 is the simplified form of 與. The traditional 與 depicts four hands cooperating to lift and pass an object, conveying the idea of giving or participating together. Over time the meaning extended to 'and' and 'with', linking parties who share or take part in something.
