The left side looks like the sun radical with an extra line in the middle and the right side is the same right side as 很, so you use these to REALLY look at that SUN

The left side is an eye radical, which makes sense because this means eyes. Also, the right side looks like “很”, so it’s like it “really” means “eyes”

The character looks like an eye with Egyptian make-up, I associate it with 很 because it portrays the really complex make-up of the eye.

its radical is the eye itself and can be perceived as several eyes are included in every holes between the lines.

There’s an eye radical on the right, and using the right-hand-side character of (很 – very) symbols on the left to form this character.

眼 is the first part of 眼睛. I remember 眼 by first noting that the first radical is an eye, which is pretty straight forward. It also looks like a sideways eye. The second part of this character reminds me of a sideways eye with some eyeliner.

There is an eye radical in this character. It is almost the same on the right side as 很。(just half of this character). So we can suppose that aliens might have very big eyes.

With my eyes, therefore the eye radical, I can read a lot, therefore part of the character 很.

First of all the radical itself is eye, then the right character looks like the eye with the nerves on the bottom.

Left radical means eye and this character itself means eye.

Imagine the right side of “眼” as a person’s eye wide open, reflecting the brightness of the sun. The shared component with “很” (hěn) reinforces the idea of the eye being wide open or very observant.

Imagine a big eye (目) staring at you.
