(Explanation from the entry for the simple form ​:) The simple-form character ​ (9 strokes) is an abbrev. of the full-form character 覺 (20 strokes), replacing the upper full-form component ​𦥯 (13 strokes) with ​ (5 strokes), and replacing the lower full-form component ​ (7 strokes) with its simple form ​ (4 strokes).
    Note: In the simple-form character ​, the upper part ​ (5 strokes) is an abbrev. of the simple form ​ (8 strokes), replacing the lower part ​ with the simple form ​.
    Note: In the full-form character 覺, the upper part ​𦥯 (13 strokes) is an abbrev. of the full form ​ (16 strokes), replacing the lower part ​ with the full form ​.
    The Shuōwén Seal form of ​/覺(​􁞐) jué ‘realize/understand; teach/enlighten’ (​; ​) combines ​/​(​􁝪) ‘see/vision’ (perception/understanding), and ​/​(​􀣢) xué ‘study/learn’ (abbrev. phonosemantic); when the innocent child receives proper instruction, the darkness/ignorance is displaced, replaced with light/vision/understanding.
    Compare: ​𢽾/​(​􀣡) xiào/xué ‘teach/learn’; ​/​(​􀣢􀣡) xué ‘study/learn’, in which ​(​􁒧𠘨) mì ‘covering’, as in ​(​􀊽) méng ‘cover/darkness/ignorance’ (䷃).
    Compare: ​(​􀣞) jiāo/jiào ‘teach’; ​(​􀣳) yáo ‘n-gram lines’ (learning/science/philosophy).
