U+53FA "叺" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+53FA "叺" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and obscure Chinese character, primarily used in Japanese as a component of place names or surnames, though it is not commonly found in modern standard Chinese usage. It is classified under the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs block, meaning it represents a shared character across these languages, but its specific meaning is often associated with the concept of "mouth" or "opening" due to its radical composition, which includes the "mouth" radical (口). Its appearance is characterized by a combination of strokes that suggest a stylized representation of a bag or sack, and in Japanese contexts, it can be read as "kuchi" or "fukuro," hinting at an older or specialized use in written texts.
