U+60FA "惺" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+60FA "惺" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily conveys the meanings of "awake," "clear-minded," or "understanding," often appearing in classical and modern Chinese compounds related to mental alertness or recognition. It is a well known component in the term "惺惺相惜" (xīng xīng xiāng xī), which describes a mutual appreciation or sympathy between people of similar talent, intelligence, or character. The character itself is composed of the radical 忄 (heart, mind) on the left, indicating emotion or thought, and the phonetic component 星 (star) on the right, which also contributes to its pronunciation in Mandarin as "xīng." Beyond its literal sense of being awake or lucid, "惺" carries a nuanced connotation of insightful awareness and emotional resonance in literary and colloquial usage.
