U+6CBF "沿" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
沿
U+6CBF "沿" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "along" or "to follow a path," often used in the context of rivers, roads, or coastlines to indicate movement or positioning beside a linear feature. Its composition combines the water radical (氵), referencing flowing water, with a phonetic component, and it appears in common words such as 沿海 (yánhǎi), meaning "coastal," and 沿途 (yántú), meaning "along the way." This ideograph is an essential part of modern Chinese and Japanese writing systems, frequently employed in geographic descriptors, travel directions, and abstract expressions of continuity or adjacency.
