U+77AF "瞯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare or classical Chinese character that typically conveys the meaning of "to stare at" or "to glance sideways," often implying a suspicious or stealthy look. It is composed of the radical "目" (eye) and a phonetic component, and it appears in historical or literary Chinese texts, such as in descriptions of furtive glances in classical poetry or philosophical writings.
