U+5B3B "嬻" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5B3B "嬻" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and archaic Chinese character that appears in classical texts and historical dictionaries, where it is generally associated with meanings of obscenity, licentiousness, or moral defilement, often serving as a variant of the more common character 瀆 (dú). Its structure combines the radical 女 (woman) with a phonetic component, and while it is not used in modern standard Chinese, it occasionally surfaces in the study of ancient literature or in the context of calligraphy as a preserved glyph within the CJK unified ideograph repertoire.
