The kanji 晃 is a 形声文字 (keisei moji), a phono-semantic compound character. It is composed of two parts: ☀️ (日 - hi), which means "sun" or "day," representing the semantic element, or meaning. And 𠤎 (黃 - kō), which is the phonetic component, indicating the sound (and also related to the meaning of "yellow"). The combination of these components suggests something bright and shining like the sun. The meaning has evolved to encompass a broader range of bright and clear concepts.
