About

The character "胱" is constructed from the radical "月", which typically signifies flesh or bodily organs, and the component "光", which functions phonetically to indicate its reading as "guāng". Etymologically, this character is intrinsically linked to the compound term "膀胱", where it specifically refers to the urinary bladder, a meaning that has remained stable and specialized within anatomical context since its inception. Its formation follows the common semantic-phonetic principle, with the radical categorizing it as a body part and the phonetic component approximating the sound of the word it represents, and over time it has not developed independent meanings outside of this medical terminology.
