Origin

The phrase 百年之後 is formed by four characters: 百, 年, 之, and 後. The character 百, meaning hundred, is composed of the semantic component 一 (one) and the phonetic component 白 (white). The character 年, meaning year in generic contexts, consists of the semantic component 禾 (grain; cereal) and the phonetic component 人 (man; person; people).

The character 之, meaning to go, is formed from the components 止 (foot) and 一 (one). The character 後, meaning behind, rear, or back, contains the components 幺 (tiny; minute) and 夊 (of going, slow).
