U+5ECD "廍" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
廍
U+5ECD "廍" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and largely obsolete Chinese character that historically referred to a type of building or shed, specifically a sugar mill or a structure used for processing sugarcane in traditional Chinese agriculture. It is composed of the radical "广" (roof or shelter) and the phonetic component "部," indicating its connection to an enclosed workspace. Today, the character retains limited usage in specialized historical texts or regional contexts, particularly in Taiwan and southern China, where it appears in place names or references to old sugar-making sites. Its infrequent use means it is often missing from standard modern fonts or input systems.
