U+8D2A "贪" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character meaning "greed" or "to be greedy," composed of the radical for "shell" or "money" (贝) above the character for "today" or "present" (今), which together suggest a visual metaphor of being obsessed with wealth in the current moment. In modern usage, it often appears in words like "tānlán" (贪婪, greed) or "tānxīn" (贪心, covetousness), and it carries a strong negative moral connotation, frequently used in discussing corruption, avarice, or excessive desire in both classical texts and contemporary language.
