Alternative forms[edit]
The character "圳" is not included in the first Japanese encoding system (due to its inclusion in the JIS X 0213 encoding), so the city name is commonly written as 深セン.
Etymology[edit]
Orthographic borrowing from Chinese 深圳 (Shēnzhèn). Sen is not an expected on-reading of 圳 and may derive from 川's on-reading of sen, which serves as a kan'yoon reading.

- Shenzhen (a major subprovincial city in Guangdong, in southeastern China)
