U+5E3F "帿" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

帿

U+5E3F "帿" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character used in classical or historical texts, primarily functioning as a phonetic or decorative component in proper names and titles. Its structure combines the radical for cloth or clothing (巾) with a phonetic element related to "hou" or similar sounds, though its exact meaning is often obscure and not commonly defined in modern dictionaries. This character appears in some ancient records and calligraphic works but has no widely recognized standalone definition in contemporary usage, making it a subject of interest for specialists in historical Chinese script and epigraphy.
