U+5123 "儣" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5123 "儣" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that is historically infrequent in use, primarily encountered in classical or literary texts rather than modern standard Mandarin. Its structural composition, featuring the radical for "human" or "person" 亻 on the left, often indicates a connection to people or human actions, while the right component relates to broadness or expansion derived from its phonetic element. The character's meaning is traditionally associated with concepts of vastness, scarcity, or peculiar behavior, sometimes conveying a sense of "strange" or "uncommon" in ancient writings. Despite its limited modern application, "儣" is encoded in Unicode as part of the CJK Unified Ideographs block to ensure preservation and digital accessibility for scholarly and historical research.
