Corrupted variant of 著 (艹 → 䒑; 日 → 目 (mù)). Recorded as an unorthodox form (俗字) in the Tang dynasty orthographic dictionary Ganlu Zishu 《干祿字書》.

Later dictionaries such as the Ming dynasty 《字學三正》 and Qing dynasty Zhengzitong 《正字通》 recorded the glyph as ⿱𦍌⿰丿目.

着 is both the standard and variant traditional character of some senses of 著 (Pronunciations 1 and 2). In Hong Kong, 着(zoek3/zoek6) and 著(zyu3) are both used and represent different meanings.

In mainland China's Table of General Standard Chinese Characters (通用规范汉字表), 著 (zhù) is not listed as a traditional form of 着 and is considered a separate character.
