U+5105 "儅" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5105 "儅" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that has traditionally been used as a variant of the standard character "当" (dāng/dàng) in certain historical and regional contexts, primarily carrying meanings related to "ought to," "should," "to serve as," or "at the time of," though it often appears in classical texts and specialized dictionaries rather than in modern everyday writing. It consists of a radical for "person" (亻) on the left combined with a phonetic component on the right, and its usage is largely limited to historical documentation or traditional Chinese calligraphy, where it may denote a specific nuance or stylistic choice. As part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideograph set, it is encoded for compatibility across East Asian digital text systems, but it is considered a less common or obsolete glyph outside of scholarly or literary references.
