U+4E1B "丛" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
丛
U+4E1B "丛" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that represents the concept of a clump, cluster, or thicket, often used to describe a group of plants or trees growing closely together. It is composed of the radical for "person" or "human" combined with elements suggesting gathering or layering, giving the ideograph a visual sense of things being piled or crowded. In modern Chinese, it appears in words like "cónglín" for jungle or forest, and "cóngshū" for a series of books, highlighting its function in denoting collections or assemblies. The character is historically derived from ancient script forms that emphasized overlapping or interweaving, reinforcing its meaning of density and aggregation.
