U+9732 "露" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
U+9732 "露" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that primarily means "dew" in its most literal sense, referring to the moisture that condenses on surfaces in the early morning. In a broader cultural and linguistic context, it conveys connotations of openness, exposure, or revelation, as seen in compounds like 暴露 (bàolù, to expose) and 透露 (tòulù, to disclose). The character is composed of the rain radical 雨 on top and the phonetic component 路 (lù, meaning road or path) below, suggesting both its meteorological origin and its extended metaphorical use in expressing transparency or the act of becoming visible. It is widely used in both modern and classical Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, and is part of the common vocabulary for describing natural phenomena, communication, and emotional states.
