U+512C "儬" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

儬

U+512C "儬" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character classified under the radical for "person" (亻) and composed of 17 strokes, with its traditional form appearing in classical texts and historical dictionaries. Its primary meaning relates to "earnest" or "sincere" in the context of moral rectitude, often describing a person of steadfast integrity or rigorous self-discipline. While it appears in some older literary works and specialized lexicons such as the Kangxi Dictionary, it is extremely uncommon in modern Chinese, Japanese, or Korean usage, where it has been largely supplanted by more common characters with similar meanings.
