U+56C4 "囄" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

囄

U+56C4 "囄" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character used in classical and literary contexts, primarily as a variant or alternative form of the more common character "離" (lí), meaning to depart, leave, or separate. Its structure combines the radical "口" (mouth, enclosure) with a phonetic component, placing it in the category of ideographs that borrow sound and meaning from others. In modern standard Chinese, "囄" is seldom used in everyday writing, appearing instead in historical texts, dictionaries, or specialized linguistic references where variant characters are documented.
