U+617D "慽" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
慽
U+617D "慽" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily conveys meanings related to sorrow, grief, or melancholy, often appearing in classical or literary contexts to describe a state of deep emotional distress. It is composed of the radical 心 (heart) on the bottom, indicating its connection to emotions or feelings, and the phonetic component 戚 above, which provides a clue to its pronunciation (pronounced approximately as "qī" in Mandarin). This character is rarely used in modern everyday Chinese writing but can be found in historical texts, poetry, or formal expressions of mourning and lamentation, distinguishing it from the more common homophonic character 戚 that denotes familial relatives or a sense of intimacy.
