U+5AEC "嫬" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
嫬
U+5AEC "嫬" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and archaic Chinese character that is composed of the radical "女" meaning woman or female, combined with the phonetic component "庶" which suggests a meaning related to shade or shelter. This character is not commonly used in modern Chinese or Japanese, and it appears primarily in historical or classical texts where it may have denoted a woman or a female-related concept associated with covering, shielding, or perhaps a specific personal name in ancient records. Its precise definition remains obscure due to its infrequent usage, and it is typically included in comprehensive Unicode encoding to preserve the full repertoire of CJK characters for scholarly and digital reference.
