U+7731 "眱" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+7731 "眱" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (Hanzi) that represents a specific logographic unit used in traditional and simplified Chinese writing, as well as in Japanese Kanji and Korean Hanja. Its primary meaning relates to the concept of "to look askance" or "to squint at someone" often conveying a sense of sidelong glance or looking with suspicion or displeasure. The character is composed of the radical "目" (eye) on the left side, which indicates its semantic connection to vision, and the phonetic component "夷" on the right, which provides a clue to its pronunciation (pronounced roughly like "yí" in Mandarin). While not among the most common characters in modern Chinese, it appears in classical literary texts, poetry, and historical documents where precise visual expressions are described.
