U+4EB1 "亱" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+4EB1 "亱" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare or historical Chinese character that functions as a variant form of the more common character "夜" (yè), meaning "night." Composed of the radical for "sky" or "heaven" (亠) and a component representing evening or darkness, "亱" appears in classical texts and some dictionary entries but is not used in modern standard Chinese writing. Its encoding in Unicode allows for the preservation and digital representation of this archaic glyph, ensuring that scholars and linguists can access it for historical and typographical study.
