Han character 㵏

2384/6592

㵏 denotes an old Chinese word for deep water. In Mandarin it is read cuǐ, roughly “tsway” with a low, dipping tone. It is a rare dictionary and literary form; the related character 漼 also has historical senses of falling tears and figurative decline, so context matters for those readings.

Text symbol

What 㵏 means

Its recorded sense points to deep water.

The older form 漼 appears in Shuowen, an early Chinese dictionary, glossed as “deep”; its example quotes a line from the Classic of Poetry, an anthology of old Chinese poems, describing a deep pool. Yupian, another old dictionary, lists 㵏 beside 漼 with the same reading.

Historical entries also extend 漼 to falling tears and figurative damage or decline. Those senses are recorded for the related form; read 㵏 with its water-depth sense unless the surrounding text supports another.

How do I type 㵏?

Type cuǐ or cui3 in pinyin; select 㵏.

On a Mandarin pinyin input method, type cuǐ or its tone-number spelling cui3, then choose 㵏 from the candidate list. In Wubi, a Chinese character input layout, use iayf if your layout includes it.

If it appears as a box, the font or app lacks a glyph for it. The box is a missing-character placeholder, not part of 㵏.

Rare, dictionary-like and literary; use the surrounding sentence to judge any figurative sense.
