U+52FD "勽" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

勽

U+52FD "勽" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and largely obsolete Chinese character that traditionally means to cover or to enfold, with its form combining elements suggesting an enclosing hand or wrapper. It appears in classical Chinese texts and older dictionaries such as the Kangxi Dictionary, where it is identified as a component or variant within other characters, but it has fallen out of common usage in modern Chinese writing. Contemporary digital fonts and Unicode standards include it primarily for historical and scholarly purposes, allowing for accurate representation of ancient documents and philological research.
