U+5875 "塵" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
塵
U+5875 "塵" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character representing "dust" or "dirt," and is also used in Japanese as "chiri" with the same meaning. This ideograph is composed of the radical for "deer" (鹿) on top and the component for "earth" or "soil" (土) below, visually evoking the image of dust raised by a running deer. In classical Chinese texts and modern usage, it often conveys ideas of the mundane world, worldly affairs, or something trivial and fleeting. The character appears in the ancient Chinese dictionary "Shuowen Jiezi" and remains in common use across East Asian languages, including Japanese and Korean, sometimes in Buddhist contexts to denote impurity or to contrast with the sacred.
