(2) The use of the kanji "しゃる" (sharaku) began after the Muromachi period, when "sare" (sare) became a yo-on (a consonant sound) to "share," and is said to have been the work of the Edo period Confucian scholar Fujiwara Seika. The Chinese word "しゃる" (sharaku) may have been used because it has a similar meaning to "しゃれ," meaning a clear-minded, free-from-remorse.

〘名〙 (「洒落」は当て字)① 当世風でいきなこと。気のきいていること。さっぱりしてものにこだわらないこと。洒脱(しゃだつ)。※俳諧・田舎の句合（1680）序「東坡が風情、杜子がしゃれ、山谷が気色より初て」※談義本・当風辻談義（1753）一「物堅ひを古風といやしめ、今やうの晒落(シャレ)をしらぬかと」② はなやかによそおうこと。また、はでな服装。いきな身なり。おしゃれ。※俳諧・本朝文選（1706）三・譜類・百花譜〈許六〉「しゃれを尽し、一向(ひたすら)遊女の立振舞に似たれば」③ その場に興を添えるために言う滑稽な文句。ある文句をもじって言う地口(じぐち)。だじゃれ。警句。冗談。※洒落本・遊子方言（1770）「こっちへ木のめ田楽木のめ田楽と、しゃれをいふ」※俳諧・おらが春（1819）「此の一巻や、しなのの俳諧寺一茶なるものの草稿にして、風調洒々落々と杜をなす。こや寸毫も洒落にあらず」④ たわむれてする事。冗談事。遊び。※滑稽本・人間万事虚誕計‐前（1813）「近所まで来たから、ちょっと寄りやした。あっちへ知らせずに、ここぎりのしゃれとしやせう」※魔都（1937‐38）〈久生十蘭〉二二「この密告が洒落(シャレ)でも冗談でもないことは」⑤ 遊里などでの遊び。また、それになれていること。※黄表紙・四天王大通仕立（1782）「江戸へズイ行(ゆ)きの北国(ほくこく)洒落(ジャレ)がよう御座えやせう」⑥ 「しゃれおんな（洒落女）」の略。※浮世草子・傾城禁短気（1711）三「是正真の悪晒(わるしゃれ)といふしゃれにて、歴々人の持て遊びに成物にあらず」⑦ （得意になれるような）見ばえのよい物事。※浮雲（1887‐89）〈二葉亭四迷〉一「親から仕送りなどといふ洒落(シャレ)はないから」[語誌](1)語源は、「ざれ（戯）」「され（晒・曝）」などに求められるが、この両語がどのような過程で後世の「しゃれ」に派生していったかは明らかではない。
(2)「洒落」の漢字を当てるようになったのは、室町時代以降「され」が「しゃれ」に拗音化してからのことで、江戸時代の儒学者、藤原惺窩によるといわれる。漢語としての「洒落(しゃらく)」は、心がさっぱりしていて、わだかまりがないことという意味で、「しゃれ」と類似した語義を有するところから当てられるようになったものか。
