[edit] Etymology
Variant of 著. In current form 羊 + 目, with distorted 羊. Not related to 差 or 羞.

- make a move, take action
[edit] Usage notes
着 and 著 are traditional variants of the same character (variant dictionary), and in simplified Chinese only 着 is used. However, in Japanese shinjitai, 着 and 著 are distinct characters, and in Big5 encoding 著 is encoded but 着 is not – the variants were standardized differently in Mainland simplified and Taiwanese traditional.
