U+56F1 "囱" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+56F1 "囱" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that traditionally represents the concept of a chimney or flue, as seen in the word "煙囱" meaning "smoke chimney" or "smokestack." This character is composed of the radical "囗" (enclosure) surrounding the phonetic element "匆" (meaning "hurried" or "busy"), which contributes to its pronunciation. In modern usage, "囱" appears in both simplified and traditional Chinese scripts, often describing architectural structures that vent smoke, such as those found in kitchens or factories, and it is also used in Japanese kanji with similar meanings related to vents or pipes.
