U+6F80 "澀" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

澀

U+6F80 "澀" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character primarily used in the context of taste and texture, where it denotes a puckering or astringent, rough sensation, often associated with unripe fruit, tannins in tea or wine, or an uneven surface. Its structure combines the water radical on the left with a phonetic and semantic component on the right that suggests difficulty or obstruction, reinforcing the idea of something that causes the mouth to contract or feels harsh to the touch. In modern usage, it appears in words like "苦澀" meaning bitter and astringent, and it is occasionally employed metaphorically to describe awkward or strained social interactions. This character is part of the CJK unified ideographs block and is recognized in both traditional and simplified Chinese writing systems, though its simplified form is "涩".
