U+5044 "偄" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5044 "偄" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily appears in historical or classical texts, where it carries meanings related to being soft, weak, or frail, often describing a person’s physical condition or character. Its structure combines the radical for "person" or "human" on the left with a phonetic component on the right, suggesting a compound that conveys both sound and sense. In modern Chinese and Japanese usage, this character is rare and largely obsolete, typically encountered only in specialized lexicons or older literary works. As part of the extensive CJK Unified Ideographs block, it represents a small piece of the vast heritage of East Asian writing systems, preserving a term for vulnerability that has faded from everyday language.
