Unicode Version 17.0

僩

U+50E9 "僩" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily conveys the meanings of "valiant," "brave," or "martial," often describing a bold or fearless demeanor, and it can also imply a sense of broad-mindedness or magnanimity. This character is used in classical and literary Chinese contexts, appearing in historical texts and poetry to depict qualities of courage and moral fortitude. Its structure combines the radical for "person" on the left, indicating a human-related concept, with a phonetic component on the right that hints at its pronunciation, which in modern Mandarin is typically rendered as "xiàn." While not commonly used in everyday contemporary Chinese, "僩" retains significance in specialized linguistic studies and the preservation of traditional vocabulary.
