Décomposition du caractère

• 目shape partUn pictogramme simple : un œil avec sa pupille, redressé à la verticale.

Mnemonic

Un œil avec sa pupille, dessiné couché puis dressé quand le chinois s’est écrit en colonnes verticales — d’où le rectangle debout d’aujourd’hui. Comptez les barres et vous distinguez trois caractères : 口 est vide, 日 en a une, 目 en a deux. C’est l’œil sous la main dans 看, et l’œil de 眼睛 et de 睡.
