U+6EE9 "滩" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+6EE9 "滩" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "beach," "sandbar," or "shoal," and it is commonly used in modern Chinese to refer to a flat, sandy or pebbly area along a shore or riverbank. This character is composed of the radical for water (氵) on the left, indicating its association with water, and the phonetic component "难" on the right, which contributes to its pronunciation as "tān" in Mandarin. Beyond its literal meaning, "滩" appears in compound words like "沙滩" (shātān, meaning sandy beach) and "海滩" (hǎitān, meaning seaside beach), and it is also found in place names such as "滩涂" (tāntú, tidal flat). As part of the CJK Unified Ideographs block, this character is widely used across Chinese, Japanese, and Korean scripts, reflecting its practical importance in describing geographical features related to water bodies.
