U+8712 "蜒" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+8712 "蜒" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that typically refers to a type of slug or snail, specifically used in the compound "蜿蜒," meaning winding or meandering, as in describing a serpentine path or the sinuous shape of a dragon. It is composed of the radical "虫" (insect or creature) on the left and the phonetic component "延" (to extend or prolong) on the right, which gives a clue to its pronunciation as "yan" in Mandarin. This logogram is classified under the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs block and has historical usage in both modern and classical Chinese texts to denote slow-moving, elongated creatures or to describe curving, stretching forms in nature or architecture.
