U+58FB "壻" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

壻

U+58FB "壻" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese and Japanese kanji character that means "son-in-law" or "husband," often referring specifically to a man who marries into a woman's family and resides with her parents, a practice historically known as matrilocal marriage. It is composed of the radical for "earth" or "ground" (土) combined with elements suggesting a man or a male relative, and its usage appears in classical texts and modern contexts related to family relationships. In Japanese, it is read as "muko" or "seki" in certain compound words, while in Chinese its pronunciation is "xù," sharing semantic overlap with the more common character 婿. This character reflects deep cultural traditions surrounding marriage and kinship structures in East Asian societies.
