U+5B30 "嬰" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
嬰
U+5B30 "嬰" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "infant" or "baby," often capturing the concept of a very young child. It is composed of radical 女 (woman) as a component, with additional elements that traditionally suggest adornment or necklaces worn around a baby's neck, connoting both fragility and preciousness. The character is used in modern Chinese and Japanese, for example in the word 婴儿 (yīng'ér) for "infant" and in Japanese names or terms like 嬰児 (eiji) meaning "baby." Its structure reflects a historical pictographic evolution, where the top portion was derived from images of neck ornaments, symbolizing the vulnerable yet cherished state of a new life.
