About
The character "歪" is etymologically constructed from the components "不", meaning "not", and "正", meaning "straight" or "correct", forming a compound ideograph that literally denotes "not straight" and initially referred to physical crookedness or a slant. Its structure visually encapsulates the idea of deviation, serving as a direct representation of something askew or off-center. Over time, the meaning of "歪" extended beyond concrete spatial descriptions to encompass abstract forms of impropriety, such as flawed reasoning or unethical behavior, thereby gaining metaphorical layers that imply falsity or moral divergence while still retaining its original compositional sense.
