U+6F42 "潂" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+6F42 "潂" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese logograph used primarily in classical or historical texts, rather than in modern standard Mandarin, where it is pronounced "hóng" or "hòng." The character is composed of the water radical 氵 on the left and the phonetic component 夅 on the right, and its traditional meaning relates to the swelling or rising of water, often specifically referring to flooding or an overflowing deluge. While rare in contemporary everyday usage, it appears in ancient literature and dictionaries as a descriptive term for powerful water movements.
