U+5E39 "帹" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5E39 "帹" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and obscure Chinese character that falls under the radical for cloth or turban, typically associated with head coverings or veils. In classical Chinese texts, it is sometimes used to refer to a type of headdress or kerchief worn by women, though its usage is extremely limited and not found in modern standard vocabulary. The character is encoded in the CJK Unified Ideographs block for compatibility with historical and literary works, making it primarily of interest to scholars of ancient Chinese script rather than everyday communication.
