U+5082 "傂" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5082 "傂" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character with historical usage, primarily found in classical texts and as a surname in ancient China. It is composed of the radical for "person" (亻) on the left and the phonetic component "虒" on the right, which together contribute to its meaning and pronunciation, typically read as "zhì" or "chí" in Mandarin. The character appears in the "Kangxi Dictionary" and is defined there with associations to a type of mythical beast or a name for a river in old literature, though it is not used in modern standard Chinese and remains largely obscure, serving as a curiosity for scholars of historical linguistics and paleography. Its inclusion in the Unicode standard ensures that this ancient glyph can be digitally preserved and referenced across computing platforms.
