U+5B52 "孒" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5B52 "孒" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare or archaic Chinese character, primarily used in classical texts or as a variant form. Often considered a simplified or alternative writing of the character 孑 (jié), which means "alone" or "solitary," it shares the meaning of being a remnant or leftover, sometimes referring to a short, leftover stump or a small, isolated piece. Its usage in modern standard Chinese is extremely limited, appearing mostly in historical documents, poetry, or specialized character lists, where it retains a sense of singularity or incompleteness.
