Variant of 看

𭾩 is another written form of 看, the character for looking or watching. Japanese character references give this exact glyph the readings kan and miru (“look”). The older character’s shape has two different historical explanations.

Text symbol

What 𭾩 means

It represents the action of looking, through 看. Japanese character references record 𭾩 with the readings kan and miru (“look”).

The Shuowen Jiezi, an early Chinese character dictionary compiled between 100 and 121 CE, glosses 看 as “to look out” and explains its upper part as a hand shading the eye. A dictionary of ancient Chinese writing gives another analysis: 目 means “eye,” while 㫃 is a sound component, a part that hints at pronunciation.
