U+5939 "夹" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5939 "夹" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to clip" or "to hold between," and is also used to convey the idea of being sandwiched, mingling, or carrying something under the arm. It is a simplified form of the traditional character "夾," and its structure consists of a person (大) flanked by two small components, visually suggesting something pressed from both sides. In modern usage, it appears in common words such as "夹克" for jacket, "夹子" for clip or tongs, and "夹杂" meaning to intermix, reflecting its core concept of compression or inclusion between two surfaces.
