Unicode Version 17.0

U+5270 "剰" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character used primarily in Japanese, where it represents the concept of "surplus", "remainder", or "excess", and is also found in Korean Hanja with similar meanings. It is a variant of the traditional Chinese character 剩 (shèng), which carries the same sense of something left over or extra. In Japanese, 剰 appears in common compounds like 剰余 (jōyo, meaning "remainder" or "surplus") and is classified as a Jōyō kanji, meaning it is taught in Japanese schools and used frequently in everyday writing. This character consists of 11 strokes and combines the radical 刂 (knife or sword) with the phonetic component 乘, reflecting its historical development in East Asian scripts.
