Chinese character 团

2275/20992

In Mandarin, 团 points to a rounded mass, a gathering, or a group; the full word gives the precise sense. Its pinyin readings tuangou and tuanyuan appear in words for group buying and reunion. In simplified Chinese it also represents 糰, the traditional food character.

Text symbol

What 团 means

A gathered group or a rounded mass, depending on the word. The traditional form 團 is recorded in bronze inscriptions from early Western Zhou, an ancient Chinese dynasty. Early dictionaries gloss 團 as “round”; later uses extend to gathering and organized groups, as in 团购 and 团结.

The 1956 Chinese Character Simplification Scheme standardized 团 for both 團 and 糰. In traditional writing, 團 is used in group-related words and 糰 in food words such as dumpling, so converting 团 back requires the surrounding word.

Why does 团 show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
