U+5192 "冒" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
冒
U+5192 "冒" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to emit," "to give off," or "to risk," and it is commonly used in compounds like "冒险" (màoxiǎn) meaning "to take a risk" and "冒烟" (màoyān) meaning "to smoke." Its structure visually combines the radical "冖" (a covering) with "目" (eye), which historically suggests the idea of something covering or projecting outward, such as steam or vapor rising from a surface. In addition to its literal uses, the character appears in idiomatic expressions and can also denote impersonation, as in "冒充" (màochōng) meaning "to pretend to be." This character is part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs block in Unicode and is widely used across these languages.
