Character Evolution
Explore how each character evolved over 3000+ years of Chinese writing history.
In oracle bone script,「云」resembles rolling clouds in the sky — a pure pictograph. The upper part is the cloud layer, the lower part is the trailing cloud wisps.
In bronze script,「云」gained a「雨」(rain) header, becoming「雲」— emphasizing the relationship between clouds and rain.
In seal script,「云」has two forms:「云」(the cloud-vapor pictograph) and「雲」(with the rain header added). The 'Shuowen' explains: 'Yun is the breath of mountains and rivers.'
From the simplest cloud pictograph, to the complex form「雲」with the rain header, and back to the simplified form that returns to the ancient original — a full circle. Clouds symbolize loftiness, freedom, and effortless grace.
