Marrow character

3040/4939

𰯟 is another written form of 髓, the Chinese character for bone marrow—the soft tissue inside bones—and, figuratively, the core or essence of something. Read it as 髓 in a text, not as a separate word.

Text symbol

What 𰯟 means

It extends from marrow to the essential part of something.

The Shuowen Jiezi, an early Chinese character dictionary, explains the older form as “fat inside bone.” It analyzes the character as the bone element plus a part chosen for its sound. Later Chinese usage extends 髓 from marrow to marrow-like substances and, figuratively, to what is essential.
