U+6BD2 "毒" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+6BD2 "毒" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that translates primarily to "poison," "toxin," or "poisonous," and it also conveys broader meanings of “harm,” “malice,” or “virulence” in various East Asian languages, including Japanese and Korean. The character’s composition visually combines elements representing “life” or “growth” (from the radical 生, “sheng”) and “mother” or “female” (from 母, “mu”), suggesting an ancient metaphor for a dangerous or corrupting influence that can arise from nurturing origins. In modern usage, it appears frequently in words such as “病毒” (bìngdú, meaning “virus”) and in contexts related to medicine, chemistry, and moral or social harm, reflecting its enduring significance across languages that adopt Chinese characters.
