U+59E2 "姢" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+59E2 "姢" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character used primarily in classical and some modern contexts of East Asian writing systems, including Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. This character is typically read as "juàn" in Mandarin, and its fundamental meaning revolves around the concept of "good" or "excellent," often referring to a woman of grace or beauty. It belongs to the radical "女" (woman), which indicates its semantic association with feminine qualities, and its structure combines this radical with the phonetic component "肙" to suggest both sound and sense. In Japanese, it can appear in the name "Hime" or be used in classical literature, while its usage in modern standard Chinese is relatively rare, having been largely supplanted by more common characters like "娟" (also meaning graceful or beautiful). Overall, U+59E2 represents a specific, elegant, and somewhat antiquated ideograph within the vast CJK character repertoire.
