U+5EED "廭" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5EED "廭" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and obscure Chinese character that appears in the Kangxi Dictionary and classic literary texts, where it is used as a variant form of the character "既" (jì), meaning "already" or "since." Its structure combines the radical "日" (sun) with elements related to completeness or satiety, reflecting its historical association with the concept of something being finished or exhausted. Due to its extremely limited use in modern Chinese, Japanese, or Korean, it is primarily encountered in specialized historical or philological contexts.
