字源故事 (Origin Story)

“鉴”最早的字形表现为一种盛水的器皿，用来照见人影，以此来判断外貌，因此“鉴”逐渐引申为察看、辨别、借鉴之意。The earliest forms of '鉴' depicted a water vessel used to reflect one's image. People would look into such a vessel to observe their appearance, so the character later extended to mean observing, discerning, and learning from others.

字形演变 (Character Evolution)

甲骨文 (Oracle Bone Script):

暂无“鉴”的甲骨文字形，因该字出现较晚。 There is no known oracle bone form for '鉴', as the character emerged later.

金文 (Bronze Inscription):

金文中的“鉴”常以“监”或类似字形出现，形状多表现为有盛水容器的形象，用于“照”的意义。 In Bronze Inscriptions, '鉴' often appeared in the form of '监' or similar, usually depicting a vessel containing water, symbolizing its function as a mirror.

小篆 (Small Seal Script):

小篆中的“鉴”字上为“金”字，下为“皿”字，表示盛水的铜器，用作照见自己，具有镜子的意义。 In Small Seal Script, '鉴' contains '金' (metal) above and '皿' (vessel) below, depicting a bronze vessel for viewing one’s reflection, embodying the meaning of a mirror.

隶书 (Clerical Script):

隶书中“鉴”字形较小篆更为方正，结构上仍保留上‘金’下‘皿’的组合。 In Clerical Script, the character became more rectilinear, but still kept the 'metal + vessel' structure.

楷书 (现代) (Regular Script (Modern)):

现代楷书中“鉴”字规范整齐，上‘金’字用于表金属材质，下‘皿’表器物，强调其作为镜子的出处。 In modern Regular Script, '鉴' is standardized: '金' (metal) on top suggests its metallic composition, while '皿' (vessel) below refers to its function as a container, together hinting at the original meaning of a mirror.
