The Chinese character 泉 (quán) for "spring" is composed of two parts: the radical 氵(shuǐ), which indicates water, and the phonetic component 泉 (quán), which is a simplified form of the character 灅 (quán), meaning "a spring of water". The character 泉 has been used in Chinese writing for over 3,000 years and has a rich history and cultural significance. In ancient China, springs were considered sacred places and were often associated with gods and goddesses. They were also seen as sources of life and fertility, and were often used in religious ceremonies and rituals. The character 泉 is still used today in Chinese writing and is found in many common words and phrases, such as 温泉 (wēnquán, "hot spring"), 泉水 (quánshuǐ, "spring water"), and 泉眼 (quányǎn, "spring eye").
