U+5407 "吇" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
吇
U+5407 "吇" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character that primarily functions as a phonetic component or an archaic variant in traditional and historical texts. Its composition combines the mouth radical (口) with the phonetic element "子" (zǐ), suggesting possible connections to sounds or utterances, though it does not carry a well-defined modern meaning in standard Mandarin. This character may appear in ancient dictionaries or classical literature as part of compound words or transcriptions, but it is not commonly employed in contemporary writing. Its inclusion in the Unicode standard ensures compatibility for digital preservation of obscure or historical Chinese scripts.
