U+503B "倻" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+503B "倻" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character used primarily in proper nouns and transliterations, especially for place names and personal names in East Asian languages like Chinese, Korean, and Japanese. Its meaning is not as conventional as more common characters, but it is known to appear in the name of the Korean valley "Gaya" (加耶 or 伽倻) and related historical contexts, where it represents a phonetic component rather than a specific semantic concept. In modern usage, it is relatively rare and often encountered in specialized or historical texts.
