U+5AF6 "嫶" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5AF6 "嫶" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) primarily used in classical or literary contexts, though it has limited modern usage. Pronounced "qiáo" or "jiāo" in Mandarin, its meaning is associated with a woman's haggard, emaciated, or sorrowful appearance, often conveying a sense of grief or hardship. The character is composed of the radical "女" (woman) on the left, indicating its feminine association, and a phonetic component "焦" (burnt or scorched) on the right, which hints at its pronunciation and connotation of withering or distress. This ideograph is rarely encountered in everyday writing but appears in historical texts, poetry, or specialized dictionaries where nuanced descriptions of human emotion or physical condition are needed.
