U+770B "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that means "to see," "to look at," "to watch," or "to read," and it is formed from the radical 目 (eye) combined with a hand-like component suggesting an action of shading or directing the gaze, historically depicting a hand above an eye. This ideograph is widely used in Mandarin, Cantonese, Japanese, and Korean, functioning both as a standalone verb and as a component in compound words such as 看見 (to see) or 看書 (to read a book). Its structure reflects a conceptual blend of sensory perception and intentional focus, making it a common and essential character across East Asian writing systems.
