U+5FFA "忺" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5FFA "忺" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (Hanzi) that falls under the "CJK Unified Ideographs" block and is categorized as a radical-related character, specifically associated with the heart radical (忄) on the left side. It is pronounced "xiān" in Mandarin Chinese and primarily carries the meaning of "to be pleased" or "to be joyful," often describing a state of happiness or satisfaction. This character is used in classical or literary contexts rather than in everyday modern Chinese, and it appears in historical texts and dictionaries as a representation of emotional contentment. Its structure combines the heart radical with the phonetic component "欠" (qiàn), suggesting a link between breath or sigh and emotional state, though its usage today is rare outside of specialized or traditional writing.
