U+7A9C "窜" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
窜
U+7A9C "窜" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to flee," "to scurry," or "to run away," often used in contexts of escape or rapid movement, and it can also imply altering or tampering with something, as in the compound "窜改" meaning to falsify or alter a text. Its composition combines the radical "穴" (cave or hole) with the phonetic component "串" (string or bunch), suggesting the imagery of something darting into a hiding place. In modern usage, the character appears in terms like "流窜" (to flee in a scattered manner) and "逃窜" (to run away in panic), commonly encountered in news reports or historical narratives describing disorderly retreats or criminal evasion.
