U+5055 "偕" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

偕

U+5055 "偕" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "together" or "accompany" and is often used in compound words and classical texts to convey the idea of acting in unison or being alongside someone or something. In modern Chinese, it appears in terms like "偕同" meaning "along with" or "together with," and it can also carry a connotation of mutual participation or joint effort. This character is composed of the radical "人" (person) on the left, indicating its semantic tie to people or human action, and the phonetic component "皆" (all/every) on the right, which suggests its pronunciation in Mandarin as "xié." As part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs block, it is used across various East Asian writing systems with similar meanings, though its frequency of use is more common in literary or formal contexts than in everyday speech.
