参见

• 拼音: cān jiàn
• 汉字拆解: 参 = 厶 + 大 + 彡 (complex character, originally pictographic of three stars); 见 = 目 (eye) + 儿 (person kneeling to observe)

含义

See also; refer to. A directive used in academic, legal, and official texts to point readers toward related content, footnotes, or cross-referenced sections.

A strictly formal, written-language term. Almost exclusively found in academic papers, legal documents, official reports, and technical manuals. Not used in spoken conversation. When you want readers to look elsewhere for more information, 参见 is the standard signal. Comparable to 'cf.' or 'see also' in English academic usage.
