U+5FD6 "忖" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
忖
U+5FD6 "忖" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means to ponder, speculate, or guess, often used in the context of carefully considering or inferring something. It is composed of the radical 心 (heart or mind) on the bottom, with the upper component 寸 (cun, a unit of measure or inch) providing phonetic and semantic hints, reflecting a sense of measuring or gauging one’s thoughts. This character appears in classical and modern Chinese texts, frequently in compounds like 忖度 (cǔnduó, to speculate or judge) and 忖量 (cǔnliàng, to consider or evaluate), and it is encoded in Unicode’s CJK Unified Ideographs block for consistent digital representation across languages.
