Unicode Version 17.0

匽

U+533D "匽" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character used in both traditional and simplified writing, with its primary meanings including "to hide," "to conceal," or "to secrete," as well as referring to a type of ancient toilet or privy. It is composed of the radical "匸" (a hiding enclosure) and the phonetic component "晏" (yàn), reflecting its semantic association with concealment or enclosure. Historically, the character appears in classical texts such as the "Shuowen Jiezi," where it is defined in relation to hiding or latrines. In East Asian typography, it rarely appears in modern common usage but is occasionally encountered in historical or literary contexts.
