U+7763 "督" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

督

U+7763 "督" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means to supervise, oversee, or inspect, and is commonly used in words related to authority and monitoring, such as "監督" (jiàndū, meaning supervision) and "都督" (dūdu, an ancient military title). This ideograph is composed of two radical components: the top part, "目" (mù, meaning eye), and the bottom part, "叔" (shū, which provides a phonetic clue), together conveying the concept of watching over or directing with a watchful eye. It holds significant historical usage in governmental and military contexts, as well as in modern terms like "警督" (jǐngdū, meaning police superintendent). As part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs block, it is encoded for use across multiple East Asian languages, including Traditional and Simplified Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, where it retains similar supervisory meanings.
