U+5942 "奂" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5942 "奂" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character classified under the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs block, and it is primarily used in modern and classical Chinese writing. Its core meaning relates to the concept of abundance, prosperity, or a large, grand, and magnificent appearance, often seen in contexts describing a spacious or beautifully adorned structure, such as a grand building or hall. The character is composed of a combination of radicals and strokes that visually evoke a sense of largeness or shelter, and it is most famously known as part of common Chinese words like “奂然” (meaning vast and splendid) or in historical names and place names. As a unified ideograph, it is recognized across multiple East Asian writing systems, though its usage and pronunciation may vary slightly between languages, with Mandarin pronouncing it as “huàn”.
