The left part, 日 (にち - *nichi*), is the radical for "sun" and provides the meaning of light and brightness. The right part, 成 (せい - *sei*), provides the phonetic element, indicating how the character is pronounced. The combination of these two elements signifies the brightness or radiance of the sun, reflecting the meaning of 晟 itself.
