U+4EF0 "仰" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

仰

U+4EF0 "仰" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to look up," "to face upward," or "to admire," and it carries connotations of respect and reliance in classical and modern East Asian languages. Composed of the radical for "person" (亻) and the phonetic component "卬," it appears in common words such as "仰望" (to look up to or admire) and "仰慕" (to admire or revere), and it is also used in formal contexts like "仰仗" meaning to rely on someone's support. In Japanese, it is read as "あおぐ" (aogu) in native kun'yomi and "ぎょう" (gyō) in on'yomi, while in Korean it is pronounced "앙" (ang), and in Cantonese it is "joeng5," reflecting its widespread use across the Sinosphere for expressing deference or the act of looking upward.
