Unicode Version 17.0
彄
U+5F44 "彄" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (Hanzi) that historically signifies a bend, curve, or the hollow of an object, such as the interior of a bow when drawn or a curved notch. It combines the radical for "bow" (弓) with a phonetic component suggesting its pronunciation and curvature-related meaning. This character is not common in modern everyday Chinese but appears in classical texts and compound terms referencing arched or recessed shapes, reflecting its specialized use in describing physical contours or structural indentations.
