U+5079 "偹" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5079 "偹" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that functions as a variant form of the more common character "備" (bèi), which carries meanings related to preparing, equipping, or being ready for something. Found in classical and literary Chinese texts, it retains the same core semantic field of preparation and sufficiency, though its usage is less frequent in modern standard Mandarin. Structurally, it belongs to the radical group for "person" (亻) combined with a phonetic component, illustrating the common pattern in CJK characters where meaning and sound are indicated by different parts of the glyph.
