About
The character "烘", with its consistent structure of the fire radical (火) alongside the phonetic component "共", has historically centered on the action of applying heat. Its core meaning, to dry or warm by fire, has remained constant, directly illustrated by its pictorial element. Over time, its usage expanded beyond the purely physical to encompass more abstract or artistic applications, such as the technique of highlighting a central subject by contrast or the deliberate fostering of an atmosphere, thereby transferring the concept of applying warmth from the material to the descriptive or social realm.
