U+8272 "色" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+8272 "色" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a fundamental and highly versatile Chinese character with the primary meaning of "color" or "hue," though it also carries a wide range of secondary meanings including "appearance," "scene," "lust," or "quality." In East Asian languages, it is a key component in words describing colors such as "red color" and in terms for "look" or "manner," and it plays a central role in idioms and phrases related to visual beauty, sensuality, or emotional expression. Its radical is derived from a pictographic representation of a person or a form, and while its modern usage is most common in Chinese and Japanese, it also appears in Korean Hanja and historical Vietnamese texts, making it a deeply rooted symbol across the Sinosphere.
