U+4E1E "丞" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
丞
U+4E1E "丞" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that traditionally means "to assist" or "to support," and it historically refers to a high-ranking official or assistant, such as a deputy or chancellor in ancient Chinese government. This ideograph is composed of two main components: the radical 一 (one) at the top, which can signify unity or primacy, and the lower part 丞 derived from 卩 (a seal or kneeling figure), together suggesting the idea of a person who aids a superior. In modern usage, it appears in terms like 丞相 (chéngxiàng), meaning "prime minister" or "chief minister," and retains its classical connotation of administrative support and hierarchical service within East Asian cultural contexts.
