U+5C5F "屟" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5C5F "屟" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character that appears in classical texts and historical reference works, primarily encountered in the context of traditional wooden footwear or clogs, specifically referring to the wooden sole or a kind of wooden shoe lining. Its structure combines the radical for "corpse" or "body" (尸) on the left with the phonetic component "枼" (yè) on the right, which suggests both its pronunciation and its semantic connection to thin, flat pieces of wood. In modern standard Chinese, this character is largely obsolete and is typically found only in specialized dictionaries or in glossaries of ancient Chinese clothing and customs, where it denotes a specific type of footgear worn in antiquity.
