Unicode Version 17.0

屉

U+5C49 "屉" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character commonly used in modern and classical writing, primarily referring to a drawer, a container, or a type of steamer basket in traditional cuisine. Its structure combines the radical "尸" (corpse or body, often indicating a covering or enclosure) with the phonetic component "世" (shi, meaning generation or world), though the phonetic relationship is historical rather than direct in modern pronunciation. In everyday usage, "屉" appears in words like "抽屉" (chōuti, drawer) and "蒸屉" (zhēngtì, bamboo steamer), highlighting its practical associations with storage and cooking. The character is encoded in the CJK Unified Ideographs block, representing its role as a standard element in the shared writing system of Chinese, Japanese, and Korean languages.
