About
准 is a simplified form of the traditional character 準. In 準, the water radical 氵 provides the semantic notion of a level surface, while 隼 serves as the phonetic element. An additional horizontal stroke reinforces the idea of a water level. In the form 准, the complex right side is replaced by 隹, a short-tailed bird, which functions as both a phonetic and structural component. The original meaning refers to a water level used for measurement, which evolved to mean standard or criterion, and later extended to signify permission or allowance based on such a standard.
