U+5BCF "寏" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5BCF "寏" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare or obsolete Chinese character that appears in classical texts and historical dictionaries, though its precise meaning is poorly attested in modern usage. It is believed to have been used as a variant or phonetic component in certain ancient written forms, possibly relating to a type of dwelling or enclosure given its radical 宀 (roof), but no standard modern definition is widely recognized. The character is included in the CJK Unified Ideographs block primarily for historical and computational completeness, preserving the encoded script repertoire from legacy character sets used in East Asian computing.
