Unicode Version 17.0
淥
U+6DE5 "淥" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (Hanzi) that primarily means "to strain" or "to filter," often referring to the process of separating liquids from solids, such as straining tea or wine. It can also denote clear, pure water or a state of being clean and clear. In traditional Chinese contexts, this character appears in classical literature and historical texts, including the *Shuowen Jiezi*, an ancient dictionary, where it is defined as relating to the clarity of water and the act of filtering. As a component of the modern Chinese lexicon, "淥" is less common in everyday writing but retains its usage in specialized or formal descriptions related to filtration or purity.
