U+509F "傟" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+509F "傟" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a relatively rare Chinese character (hanzi) that historically has been used as a variant of the character "傘" (meaning umbrella), though it is not commonly used in modern standard written Chinese or Japanese. In classical Chinese texts, it can also function as a phonetic loan or appear in transliterations for foreign names or terms, particularly in Buddhist scripture translations where it may represent a syllable sound. Its composition includes the radical for person (亻) on the left, with the right component combining elements related to "eternal" or "boundary," which contribute to its pronunciation in Middle Chinese and its rare usage in ancient literature.
