Unicode Version 17.0

姁

U+59C1 "姁" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) used in both traditional and simplified writing systems, though it is relatively rare in modern everyday usage. It is composed of the radical "女" (woman) on the left, which often relates to female or maternal concepts, and the phonetic component "句" on the right. Pronounced "xǔ" in Mandarin, its primary meaning denotes praise, approval, or beauty, and it can also be found in classical texts as a variant or component of words describing kindness or elegance. In historical usage, it sometimes appears in poetic or literary contexts to convey a sense of grace or admiration.
