U+5163 "兣" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5163 "兣" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and historically specific Chinese character that functions as a unit of measurement, typically representing a weight or capacity unit equivalent to one hundredth of a jin or approximately 0.5 grams in traditional context, though its usage is largely obsolete in modern Chinese. This character belongs to the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) Unified Ideographs block, and it is composed of the radical for "person" or "human" on the top and a phonetic component below, reflecting its classification as a pictophonetic compound. While rarely seen in contemporary writing, it may appear in historical texts or specialized references dealing with ancient Chinese metrology.
