U+506E "偮" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+506E "偮" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) used primarily in classical and literary contexts, though it is rare in modern standard Mandarin. It is composed of the radical 亻 (human) on the left and 咠 (meaning "to whisper" or "to gather") on the right, and its conventional meaning relates to "repeatedly" or "frequently" (often associated with a sense of accumulation or continuity, as in actions happening one after another). In historical Chinese texts, such as the Shijing (Classic of Poetry), the character appears in the phrase "偮偮" to describe the bustling, continuous movement of many people or things. Due to its rarity, it is largely absent from everyday vocabulary and is mainly encountered in scholarly or etymological discussions of ancient Chinese literature.
