About
The character 漩, denoting a whirlpool, is etymologically constructed from the water radical and the component 旋, meaning to revolve, thus pictorially representing swirling water. Throughout its historical usage, the character has preserved this fundamental sense, primarily describing circular currents or eddies in aquatic contexts. It is commonly found in literary and everyday vocabulary, often in the compound 漩涡, reinforcing its association with rotational flow. The integrity of its form and meaning has remained largely unchanged, underscoring a direct correlation between its linguistic structure and the natural phenomenon it describes.
