U+5A57 "婗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5A57 "婗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a logogram used in written Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, and it belongs to the Han script category. Its meaning is not common in everyday modern usage but is traditionally associated with the concept of a young woman or a female child, often carrying nuances of feminine beauty or grace depending on context. The character combines the radical for "woman" (女) with a phonetic component, reflecting typical formation patterns in Chinese character etymology. While it appears in classical texts and some reference dictionaries, it is rarely encountered in contemporary writing, making it a more obscure and specialized character within the CJK set.
