U+6C60 "池" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
池
U+6C60 "池" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (kanji in Japanese, hanja in Korean) that primarily translates to "pond," "pool," "reservoir," or "moat." It is composed of the water radical (氵, representing liquid or water) on the left side, indicating its aquatic meaning, and the phonetic component "也" (ye) on the right, which contributes to its pronunciation in Mandarin as *chí*. This character appears frequently in compound words related to bodies of water or metaphorical concepts, such as "水池" (shuǐchí, water pool) or "電池" (diànchí, battery, literally "electric pool"). Its usage is common across various contexts in East Asian languages, including literature, geography, and technology.
