U+5873 "塳" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

塳

U+5873 "塳" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character composed of the radical for earth or mound on the left and the phonetic component "逢" on the right, giving it the meaning of dust or a cloud of dust, and by extension, it can also refer to a protective covering or a cocoon-like barrier. This character is historically found in classical Chinese texts, particularly in relation to descriptions of airborne particles or layers of protective material, yet it remains obscure in modern usage and is not commonly included in standard character sets for everyday writing.
