U+4F1B "伛" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+4F1B "伛" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to bend over" or "to stoop," often used in classical and modern contexts to describe a person with a hunched back or a posture of bowing low. Its composition combines the radical for "person" (亻) with the component for "area" or "region" (区), suggesting a visual or phonetic link to bending within a bounded space. In traditional usage, it appears in phrases like "伛偻" which describes an elderly or infirm person walking with a stoop, and it carries connotations of humility or physical infirmity. The character is encoded in the UCS Unicode repertoire as part of the CJK Unified Ideographs block, representing a standard ideograph used across Chinese, Japanese, and Korean languages for formal writing and historical texts.
