U+5C61 "屡" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5C61 "屡" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that carries the core meanings of "repeatedly," "frequently," or "time and again," and is commonly used in modern Mandarin Chinese to express the idea of an action or event happening multiple times in succession. It functions primarily as an adverb in compound words such as "屡次" meaning "repeatedly" and "屡屡" meaning "often," and it also appears in formal or literary contexts to convey persistence or recurrence. Structurally, the character combines the radical 尸 (corpse or body) with phonetic and semantic elements from 娄, which contributes to its pronunciation and conceptual nuance. The glyph is rendered in a standard CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) logographic style, and as a frequently used character in East Asian writing systems, it is encoded in Unicode’s comprehensive set of ideographs for digital text representation.
