U+5940 "奀" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
奀
U+5940 "奀" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character meaning "emaciated" or "thin," specifically describing a person who is frail or skinny, often from illness or malnutrition. It is a compound ideograph combining the radical for "big" or "large" (大) with a small "divination" or "fortune" component (一), though its structure visually suggests a small person or a diminutive form of largeness. This character is used in both traditional and simplified Chinese writing, appearing in historical texts and some modern contexts, though it is relatively uncommon in everyday language.
