U+5197 "冗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+5197 "冗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily conveys the meanings of "superfluous," "redundant," or "unnecessary," often describing something excessive or extra that is not needed. In Japanese, it is also used to mean "complicated" or "tedious," and it appears in words like "冗談" (joudan, meaning "joke" or "nonsense") and "冗長" (jouchou, meaning "redundancy" or "prolixity"). The character's structure combines the radical "冖" (a canopy or cover) with "几" (a table or small stand), historically suggesting something placed under a cover that is extraneous. As part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) unified ideographs, it is widely used in East Asian languages with consistent semantic roots across writing systems.
