About
The character 毡 is a phono-semantic compound meaning "felt", a dense textile made by matting and pressing animal fibers. The radical 毛 (hair/fur) indicates the material source. In the simplified form, 占 provides the phonetic element, replacing the more complex 亶 in the traditional character 氈. The term refers both to the raw felt material and to finished products like nomadic tents, thick rugs, and heavy blankets designed for extreme cold.
