U+4FD7 "俗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
俗
U+4FD7 "俗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily conveys the concept of "custom," "common," "popular," or "secular," distinguishing it from the formal, refined, or sacred. It is composed of the radical 亻 (person, on the left) and the phonetic component 谷 (valley), suggesting a meaning related to ordinary people or worldly practices. In Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, this character appears in words for customs, folk traditions, and vulgarity, such as 风俗 (fēng sú, custom) and 俗語 (ぞくご, colloquial expression). Its usage reflects a cultural dichotomy between the elite or spiritual and the everyday or mundane, making it a key term in discussions of social norms and linguistic registers across East Asian languages.
