About
The character "宪" originates from the traditional form "憲", which initially denoted a model or statute in classical usage. Structurally, "憲" combines the radical "宀" with components including "丰" and "心", the latter associating the concept with mind or intention, whereas the simplified form "宪" replaces the lower complex elements with the phonetic component "先" under the same "宀" radical. Over centuries, its meaning narrowed from broad legal precedents to specifically indicate constitutional law, as evident in modern terms such as "宪法" for constitution.
