Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+6C8C "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily conveys the meaning of chaos or confusion, often associated with the primordial state of the universe before creation. In classical texts, it appears in the term "混沌" (hùndùn), which refers to the formless, muddled condition from which the cosmos emerged in Chinese mythology, akin to the Western concept of chaos. The character itself combines the water radical "氵" on the left, indicating a fluid or formless nature, with the phonetic component "屯" on the right. While its usage today is less common in everyday modern Chinese, "沌" retains significance in literary, philosophical, and mythological contexts, evoking a sense of primal disorder and potential.
