U+5BF9 "对" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5BF9 "对" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "toward," "opposite," "correct," or "to treat," and it functions as a simplified form in modern Standard Chinese, corresponding to the traditional character "對." It is widely used in everyday language, appearing in common words such as "对不起" meaning "sorry," "对话" meaning "dialogue," and "对比" meaning "comparison." The character typically consists of a left radical, "又" meaning "again," and a right component, "寸" meaning "inch," which together convey the idea of responding or measuring up to something. As part of the CJK unified ideographs block, it encodes a foundational logograph shared across Chinese, Japanese, and Korean writing systems, facilitating digital text representation across East Asian languages.
