''Jiong''〔An approximate pronunciation in English is .〕 () is a once obscure Chinese character meaning a "patterned window". Since 2008, it has become an internet phenomenon and widely used to express embarrassment and gloom, because of the character's resemblance to a sad facial expression. ==Original meanings== # Window, according to Xu Shen's 2nd-century dictionary ''Shuowen Jiezi'': “窻牖麗廔闓明” (an open and light window). # Granary. 米囧 means “put the new rice into a granary”. # Sacrificial place.
