U+5C57 "屗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
屗
U+5C57 "屗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare or obsolete Chinese character that combines the "corpse" radical (尸, often associated with body or dwelling concepts) with an uncommon phonetic component. It is not a standard, frequently used character in modern Chinese, Japanese, or Korean, and its precise meaning is obscure, likely referring to an ancient or specialized term. Due to its rarity, it may not be included in many common fonts or input systems, and comprehensive definitions are scarce even in specialized dictionaries. This character represents the vast, often unexplored, set of historical CJK ideographs preserved in the Unicode standard.
