目
め · me · JLPT N5 · noun
eye
👁️ me = eye: the thing that lets ME see; 目 is an eye turned on its side
Etymology: 目 began as a drawing of an eye, later rotated upright and squared off, so the two inner strokes are what remains of the pupil. Sound hook: め is said like the me in met, and my eyes are how ME sees.
