Chinese character 沣

7844/20992

沣 names the Feng River in Shaanxi; Mandarin pronounces it roughly “fuhng,” held on a high, level tone (Pinyin fēng). In a message, it reads as geographic or proper-name text. 灃 is its traditional form; dictionaries also record a classical “abundant rain” sense.

Text symbol

What 沣 means

It ties the character to a river and place names in Shaanxi. The received Shangshu text, a classic collection of Chinese political writings, includes “漆沮既从,沣水攸同”; this supports the river name, not the date of this exact glyph. In the Western Zhou, Fengjing and Haojing were nearby capitals; the river supplied them with water, and channels helped defend Fengjing.

Someone sent you 沣—what is it? Treat it as a Chinese place-name or river-name fragment; nearby words identify the reference.

Why does 沣 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.
