U+5337 "匷" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5337 "匷" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is an extremely rare and largely obsolete Chinese character meaning to weep, wail, or lament, and it is classified under the Kangxi radical 匚 (box or enclosure) with a total of 17 strokes. Its primary historical usage appears in classical texts and ancient dictionaries, such as the Shuowen Jiezi, where it described a specific manner of crying or sobbing. In modern Mandarin, however, this character is virtually nonexistent in everyday writing or speech, encountered only by specialists in paleography or traditional lexicography. Its structural composition combines the radical with phonetic components, but due to its extreme rarity, it is not included in standard computer font sets for Chinese and often renders as a missing glyph or a question mark on many systems.
