What 绒 means
It means soft down, fine fuzz, or napped cloth.
An entry in the Yupian, an old Chinese dictionary, glosses 絨 as “fine cloth.” Later lexicons also record down, napped fabric, and embroidery thread.
Neutral and concrete: it names texture, fiber, or cloth.
In 羽绒服, 绒 means down, not velvet.
