About
As a phono-semantic compound, 毯 uses the radical 毛 (hair, fur) on the left to indicate its semantic category of woven animal-fiber textiles. The component 炎 on the right serves only as the phonetic element, providing the character's pronunciation. Its primary meaning refers to thick, woven, or felted fabrics, typically made from wool, used for warmth or covering, such as heavy blankets, rugs, or carpets. This core sense has remained consistent throughout its historical usage.
