儷
U+5137 "儷" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that primarily denotes a pair, couple, or companion, often used in contexts referring to a married couple or a matched set. It is composed of the radical for "person" on the left, indicating a human aspect, and components related to beauty or grace on the right, reflecting its associations with elegance and partnership. In modern usage, it appears in terms like "伉儷," meaning a married couple, and is occasionally employed in literary or formal writing to emphasize harmony or duality.
