U+5AFD "嫽" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5AFD "嫽" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (Hanzi) that primarily carries the meaning of "to play" or "to tease," often associated with playful or frivolous behavior, and in classical contexts it can also refer to a state of being clever or crafty. This character is composed of the radical "女" (nǚ, meaning woman or female) on the left side, hinting at its historical usage in describing feminine actions or traits, while its right component "尞" (liáo) contributes to the phonetic and semantic layer, sometimes linking to concepts of burning or brightness. In modern Chinese, 嫽 is considered a rare or literary character, appearing more frequently in ancient texts or poetry rather than everyday speech, and it stands as an example of the rich, nuanced history embedded within the CJK Unified Ideographs block.
