U+5F0A "弊" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
弊
U+5F0A "弊" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a logogram used in written Chinese and Japanese, where it conveys a range of meanings centered on decline, harm, or disadvantage. In Chinese, it commonly appears in words like "弊病" (bìbìng, meaning drawback or evil) and "作弊" (zuòbì, meaning to cheat), while in Japanese it similarly denotes a flaw or abuse, as in "弊害" (heigai, meaning harmful effect). The character's structure combines the semantic radical for "shell" or "money" with a phonetic component, reflecting its historical association with worn-out or fraudulent goods. In East Asian typography, this character functions as a unified CJK ideograph within the Unicode standard, supporting consistent representation across different regional scripts.
