蹭
U+8E6D "蹭" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character pronounced as "cèng" in Mandarin and used in both modern and classical contexts. It conveys meanings related to rubbing, scraping, or moving slowly while making contact, such as dragging feet or walking with a shuffling gait, and can also imply sponging off others or taking advantage of situations without exertion. In compound words like "蹭飯" (cèng fàn), it describes the act of eating at someone else’s expense, while in "磨蹭" (mó ceng), it suggests dawdling or moving lazily. This character is written with the ⺮ (bamboo) radical and 19 strokes, reflecting its use in everyday language to indicate friction, delay, or opportunistic behavior.
