About
The character "睽" originates from a phono-semantic structure combining the radical "目", which denotes eye or vision, with the phonetic component "癸" to suggest pronunciation, initially linking it to acts of looking or gazing. Over time, its semantic scope broadened from merely visual attention to embody abstract notions of separation and divergence, a shift notably reinforced by its use in classical texts such as the I Ching, where the hexagram "睽" symbolizes estrangement and opposition. This transition from a concrete action to an expression of relational distance demonstrates how the character's application evolved while its traditional form, consistently integrating these components, preserved its etymological connection to sight even as its meanings adapted.
