U+9682 "隂" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

隂

U+9682 "隂" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that represents the concept of "dark," "shady," or "negative," and is an alternate or variant form of the more common character 陰 (yīn), which signifies the feminine, passive, or lunar principle in Chinese philosophy, particularly within the dualistic framework of yin and yang. In classical texts, 隂 often denotes the north side of a hill or the south bank of a river, a place associated with shade and coolness, and by extension, it conveys notions of concealment, mystery, or the unseen. This character is composed of the radical for "hill" or "mound" (阝) on the left, and a phonetic component on the right, reflecting its semantic and phonological roots in the Chinese writing system.
