U+6F47 "潇" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
潇
U+6F47 "潇" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character pronounced "xiāo" in Mandarin, most famously used in the term "潇湘" (Xiāo Xiāng), which refers to the Xiao River and Xiang River in China's Hunan province, as well as the scenic region they jointly traverse. The character itself combines the water radical (氵) with the phonetic component "萧" (xiāo) and evokes meanings tied to deep, clear, or rushing water, often describing a vast, open body of water or a state of natural purity and freedom. In classical Chinese poetry and culture, "潇" frequently appears in contexts of misty landscapes and the untamed elegance of rivers and lakes, contributing to its enduring literary and aesthetic significance.
