U+6039 "怹" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
怹
U+6039 "怹" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character composed of the radical for "heart" or "mind" (忄) on the left and the character "他" meaning "he" or "him" on the right. It is a respectful third-person singular pronoun used in some Chinese dialects and classical contexts, equivalent to addressing someone like "His Excellency" or "the esteemed person" rather than the ordinary "he." It is rarely used in modern standard Mandarin but can be found in older or formal texts, as well as in Beijing and certain northern dialects, where it conveys a polite or deferential tone toward the person being referred to.
