U+5E1C "帜" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+5E1C "帜" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "flag" or "banner," often used in compound words related to signaling, identification, or marking a prominent symbol. It is composed of the radical "巾" (meaning cloth or silk, indicating a textile-related meaning) and the phonetic component "只" (zhi), which provides a clue to its pronunciation in Mandarin as "zhì." Historically, this character has appeared in classical texts to refer to military standards or ceremonial banners, and in modern usage it appears in words such as "旗帜" (qí zhì) for "flag" or "standard." As part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) Unified Ideographs block of Unicode, it is encoded for consistent digital representation across languages and scripts that share this character set.
