U+59F4 "姴" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+59F4 "姴" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character that appears in classical or historical texts. It is composed of the radical "女" meaning woman or female, and a phonetic component that suggests its pronunciation may be similar to "liè" in modern Mandarin. The character generally denotes a sense of beauty or elegance, though its specific usage is obscure and it does not commonly appear in standard modern Chinese vocabulary. As part of the CJK Unified Ideographs block, it represents a shared element of written Chinese, Japanese, and Korean heritage, preserved in Unicode for compatibility with ancient documents and specialized linguistic studies.
