What 暞 means
“Bright” or “clear,” as a variant spelling. Dictionaries read it jiǎo in Mandarin and file it under 曒, the standard form.
The trail starts in 《玉篇》, the “Jade Chapters” dictionary finished in 543: its entry equates 暞 with 曒 and glosses it 明也, “bright.” The first great dictionary, 《說文解字》, has no 曒, so the family looks like a later coinage; as of 2026 no dated inscription or ritual use is on record.
