U+5B2A "嬪" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5B2A "嬪" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that primarily means "a court lady" or "a concubine of the emperor," historically referring to a woman who served in the imperial palace, often as a consort or attendant to the royal family. In Classical Chinese, it carries connotations of elegance and refinement, and it is used in compound words such as "嬪妃" (pín fēi) to denote imperial consorts or palace women. The character belongs to the set of CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs, sharing its usage across multiple East Asian languages, though it is less common in modern everyday writing. Its structure combines the radical for "woman" (女) with the phonetic component "賓" (bīn), which hints at its pronunciation and its link to the idea of a guest or visitor in the palace context.
