U+5186 "円" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
円
U+5186 "円" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese-Japanese character that primarily represents the concept of a circle, roundness, or a yen coin, serving as the standard Japanese kanji for the Japanese yen currency. Its shape is a simplified variant of the traditional Chinese character 圓, which also means round or circular. In modern usage, it appears in Japanese financial contexts, such as price tags and banknotes, and is occasionally found in Chinese text, though it is less common there than in Japan. The character's semantic range also extends to include meanings like "enclosed" or "smooth," reflecting its historical association with completeness and unity.
