About
The simplified character 浓 derives from the traditional 濃, which combines the water radical 氵 with the phonetic component 農. In simplification, 農 is reduced to 农, preserving the sound while simplifying the form. The water radical indicates the meaning concerns liquids, and 农 supplies the pronunciation. Historically, it meant heavy dew or high liquid concentration. Now it conveys thickness, density, or intensity, describing concentrated liquids like soup or coffee, as well as vivid colors, strong aromas, deep emotions, or keen interest.
