jiù

Top: outside, foreign 外 (If you are in the evening 夕 [alone] at a fork 卜 in the road, you are: an outsider), bottom: mouth 口

An outsider's mouth blames you.

夕	evening	This radical is similar to moon: 月, but at the evening the moon is not complete and thus only one inner line.
卜	oracle, mysticism	This radical is considered to be a simplification of: fortune telling 占 (crack 卜 in the shell 口 of a turtle from which the fortune was told.). Sometimes it is read as a forking of a road.
口	mouth, opening	This is a small square. If it is bigger: 囗, it is an enclosure.
