U+5B65 "孥" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
孥
U+5B65 "孥" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that traditionally means one's children or offspring, often also understood as referring to one's wife and children collectively in classical contexts. It is composed of the radical for "child" (子) and the phonetic component "奴" (meaning slave or servant), though its core semantic usage in historical Chinese texts denotes family dependents, particularly one's own progeny. This character is not commonly used in modern everyday Chinese but appears in classical literature, legal documents, and idioms where familial relationships or the concept of one's household are emphasized.
