U+6E9F "溟" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+6E9F "溟" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character commonly used in Classical Chinese and literary contexts. It primarily denotes the vast, deep ocean or a boundless expanse of water, often evoking a sense of misty, obscure, or dimly lit seascapes. This ideograph is composed of the radical for water on the left side and a phonetic component on the right, and it appears in classical texts and poetry to describe the profound depths of the sea or a sense of overwhelming, distant obscurity. In modern usage, it retains this literary and evocative quality, found in names or poetic expressions rather than everyday conversation.
