U+6D31 "洱" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
洱
U+6D31 "洱" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that primarily refers to a specific body of water, most notably Erhai Lake (洱海) in Yunnan Province, China. In classical and modern Chinese, it is used as a proper noun in place names and also carries the meaning of "eddy" or "ripple" when describing water patterns. As a radial-phonetic compound, it combines the water radical (氵) with the phonetic component "耳" (ěr, meaning "ear"), reflecting its phonetic approximation in Mandarin pronunciation. This character is typically encountered in geographic and literary contexts, representing a culturally significant lake that is a popular tourist destination and a key feature of the Bai ethnic minority region.
