About
The character "盯" is a phono-semantic compound formed by the semantic radical 目, meaning eye, and the phonetic component 丁, which indicates its pronunciation, thereby etymologically linking the character to the act of visual fixation. Its structure has consistently emphasized the notion of using the eyes to concentrate on a specific point, with the phonetic element serving primarily for sound rather than meaning. Over time, the semantic core of "盯" has remained centered on staring or watching intently, though its application has broadened to include derived terms and phrases that convey sustained attention or scrutiny in various contexts.
