About
The character 慕 is a phono-semantic compound with the heart radical 㣺 (a variant of 心) at its base, linking it to emotions and inner states. The upper component 莫, which originally depicted the sun setting into grass to mean dusk or nothingness, functions here as the phonetic element. 慕 fundamentally denotes feelings of admiration, yearning, or affection, often directed toward someone's virtues or accomplishments, and appears in compounds expressing deep respect or a strong desire to emulate an admired person.
