About
The character "蜿" is structured with the "虫" radical, indicating a relation to creatures, and the component "宛", which provides phonetic guidance and contributes the semantic notion of bending or curvature, thus collectively conveying the idea of winding or sinuous movement. Initially, its usage was specific to describing the undulating motion of snakes or dragons in classical literature. Over time, the meaning extended to encompass any meandering form, such as twisting paths, rivers, or even abstract lines, while its core association with serpentine imagery remained integral. The character's form has maintained consistency, and its etymological foundation in the concept of curvature continues to inform its modern interpretations.
