U+5719 "圙" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5719 "圙" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character that primarily functions as a phonetic element in transliterating foreign names, particularly associated with the historical term "Tibet" during the Yuan Dynasty, where it appeared in the name "吐蕃" (Tubo) as a variant for the second character. It consists of the radical "囗" (enclosure) with the phonetic component "略" inside, and its meaning is largely restricted to proper nouns and transliterations, with no common standalone usage in modern Chinese or Japanese. The character is classified under the CJK Unified Ideographs block and is assigned to Unicode version 1.1, reflecting its niche role in encoding specialized East Asian script.
