U+4F7C "佼" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily conveys meanings related to beauty, excellence, or being outstanding, and is often used in classical or literary contexts to describe someone or something as handsome, fine, or superior. Its structure combines the radical for "person" (亻) with the component for "cross" or "to mix" (交), which together suggest a person who is exceptional or preeminent.
