The kanji 尋尋 is a phono-semantic compound (形声文字). It is composed of two parts: * The left side is the radical 寸 (sun), meaning "inch" or "small unit of measurement". * The right side is 工 (kou), which originally depicted a tool or a type of construction. The original meaning might have been related to "measuring" or "searching for" something with a small unit, the "寸". This evolved to represent the actions of seeking and inquiring.
