U+60B6 "悶" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

悶

U+60B6 "悶" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character traditionally used in both Traditional Chinese and Japanese writing, where it conveys the meaning of "stuffy," "suffocating," "depressed," or "melancholy." Its structure combines the "heart" radical (心) enclosed by the "gate" radical (門), visually representing the sensation of a heart trapped or confined, which metaphorically expresses feelings of emotional oppression or physical stuffiness. This character appears in common compound words such as "悶熱" (mēn rè) meaning muggy or sultry weather, and "苦悶" (kǔ mèn) meaning anguish or deep distress. In simplified Chinese, it is replaced by the character "闷," though the traditional form retains its full structural and semantic nuance across various East Asian writing systems.
