About
The character 瞎, which signifies blindness, derives its meaning directly from its structural composition, combining the radical 目 (eye) with the phonetic and semantic component 害, which conveys a sense of harm or damage. This formation historically pointed to an eye that has been impaired, resulting in a loss of sight. Over time, the application of this character expanded beyond the purely physiological condition to encompass a broader metaphorical range, describing actions performed without sight or understanding, such as in 瞎猜 (to guess blindly) or 瞎忙 (to busy oneself pointlessly), thereby extending its sense to denote futility, recklessness, or operating in a state of ignorance.
