Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+6D88 "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to disappear," "to eliminate," or "to dissolve," and it is also used in contexts like "to spend time" or "to cancel." This logograph is composed of the radical for water (氵) on the left, suggesting its original association with the melting or flowing away of ice or snow, and the component 肖 (xiào) on the right, which contributes to its pronunciation and semantic nuance. In modern usage, "消" appears in common words such as 消失 (xiāoshī, "to vanish"), 消灭 (xiāomiè, "to annihilate"), and 消费 (xiāofèi, "to consume"), making it a versatile character in both everyday and technical Japanese, Korean, and Chinese writing.
