Unicode Version 17.0
凉
U+51C9 "凉" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "cool" or "cold" in temperature, often used to describe pleasant coolness as opposed to harsh cold, and it appears in common words like "凉爽" (liáng shuǎng) meaning "nice and cool" or "清凉" (qīng liáng) meaning "cool and refreshing." It can also convey a sense of disappointment or discouragement, as in the expression "心凉" (xīn liáng) meaning "heart turns cold" when feeling let down. The character is composed of the radical 冫 (ice) on the left and the phonetic component 京 (jīng) on the right, reflecting its semantic link to coldness and its historical pronunciation influences.
