U+70C2 "烂" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+70C2 "烂" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (simplified form) that traditionally carries the core meaning of "rotten," "decayed," "soft," or "mashed," often describing food that has spoiled or become overly soft. It is composed of the fire radical "火" on the left, suggesting transformation or destruction through heat, and the phonetic component "兰" on the right. Beyond its literal sense, the character is frequently used in metaphorical contexts, such as in the word "灿烂" (cànlàn) meaning "brilliant" or "splendid," or "烂漫" (làn màn) describing bright, lush flowers or a naive, innocent state. In modern usage, it can also imply something messy, broken, or of poor quality, as in "烂尾楼" (làn wěi lóu) for an unfinished building project.
