About
The character 睐, with its traditional form 睞, structurally combines the semantic radical 目, meaning "eye", with the phonetic component 来 in simplified or 來 in traditional script, which guides its pronunciation. Etymologically, it originates from the concept of looking or glancing, as implied by the eye radical. Initially denoting a physical glance or gaze in classical usage, its meaning gradually extended to include metaphorical senses of showing favor or preferential attention, as observed in modern compounds like 青睐. This semantic expansion reflects a transition from literal visual action to abstract expressions of regard.
