U+4EDE "仞" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
仞
U+4EDE "仞" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that historically represents an ancient unit of measurement equal to roughly eight feet or the height of a person. It is composed of the radical for "person" on the left, indicating its human-related context, and a phonetic component on the right suggesting its pronunciation. In classical texts, "仞" often appears in descriptions of depth, height, or distance, such as in phrases about deep abysses or tall walls. This character is still recognized in modern Chinese and Japanese writing, though its use is primarily literary or in specialized historical references rather than everyday language.
