The kanji 僧僧 is a phono-semantic compound (形声文字, keisei moji). The left side is a person radical (亻, ninben), representing "person" or "human." The right side is 曾, which functions as the phonetic component, conveying the sound "sō." Therefore, the character's construction indicates a person (亻) associated with a sound related to a religious person (曾), thus signifying a "monk" or someone of the clergy.
