U+6DEA "淪" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
淪
U+6DEA "淪" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to sink," "to be submerged," or "to fall into" and is often used in the context of being engulfed by water or metaphorically falling into a difficult or degraded state. It is composed of the radical for water (氵) on the left, indicating its association with liquids or flowing, and the phonetic component 侖 (lún) on the right, which contributes to its pronunciation. In classical and modern Chinese texts, it appears in words like 淪陷 (lúnxiàn, meaning "to fall into enemy hands" or "to be occupied") and 淪落 (lúnluò, meaning "to fall into ruin" or "to become destitute"), conveying a sense of decline or loss.
