U+7A85 "窅" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
窅
U+7A85 "窅" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "deep" or "profound," often used to describe a deep, hollow, or sunken appearance, such as in the term "窅然" which conveys a sense of being deep and dim or far away. Its visual structure combines the radical for "cave" or "hole" (穴) with a phonetic component, emphasizing its association with depth and obscure spaces. In classical Chinese texts, it can also carry metaphorical meanings of profound thought or unfathomable distance, appearing occasionally in poetry and historical writings to evoke a sense of mysterious depth. This character is relatively rare in modern usage, but it retains cultural significance in describing both physical and abstract profoundness.
