Radical ⽬ (mù) — meaning: eye, 5 strokes.
Origin & mnemonic
The eye radical originates from a pictograph depicting a human eye, with two horizontal strokes representing the eyelids and a vertical stroke in the middle representing the pupil. This form appears early in oracle-bone and seal script.
Mnemonic: The glyph resembles an actual eye with horizontal strokes like eyelids and a vertical stroke like the pupil—a direct visual memory hook.
