Chinese character 综

12541/20992

In Chinese, 综 (zōng) means bringing separate parts together or summarizing them, as in words for synthesis and overviews. A separate reading, zèng, names the loom part that separates lengthwise threads so a crosswise thread can pass.

Text symbol

What 综 means

It means to gather, combine, or summarize. Mandarin Pinyin (the roman-letter system for writing Mandarin sounds) distinguishes zōng for this sense from zèng for the loom tool. The Eastern Han Chinese dictionary Shuowen Jiezi records 綜 for that tool: it separates lengthwise threads so a crosswise thread can pass.

Why does 综 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.
