The word 看见 is formed by combining two characters, each representing a distinct visual action: 看 (kàn), which depicts a hand shading the eyes to look or gaze, and 见 (jiàn), which originally depicted an eye on legs to emphasize the act of perceiving or coming into sight. Their combination creates a sequential and cause-and-effect relationship, where the active effort of "looking" (看) leads to the resultant outcome of "sighting" or "perceiving" (见), merging into the single concept of "to see". This structure is a direct and logical fusion of an action and its intended visual result.
