U+5E21 "帡" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
帡
U+5E21 "帡" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily refers to a type of covering or screen, often associated with a canopy or cloth used for shelter or protection. In classical Chinese texts, it appears in terms like "帡幪," meaning a protective cover or umbrella, and it is sometimes used metaphorically to denote defense or refuge. The character is composed of the radical for cloth or turban (巾) and the component 并, which suggests a sense of joining or combining, reinforcing its meaning of something that covers or shields. In modern usage, it is relatively rare but can still be found in historical or literary contexts.
