U+6C88 "沈" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
沈
U+6C88 "沈" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character historically used to represent the surname Shen as well as concepts related to sinking, submerging, or settling, and it appears in various classical texts and modern usage across Chinese, Japanese, and Korean languages. Its structure combines the water radical (氵) on the left with the phonetic component 冘 on the right, and while it shares similarities with the character 沉 (also meaning to sink), 沈 retains distinct traditional and historical roles, including its use in place names and the ancient name of the Shen River in China.
