U+661C "昜" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
昜
U+661C "昜" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character classified under the Kangxi radical 72 (日, meaning sun or day) and is an ancient variant of the more common character "陽" (yáng), which denotes brightness, sunlight, or the positive, masculine principle in Chinese philosophy. Historically, "昜" appears in early Chinese texts and inscriptions, often representing the concept of radiant sunshine or open, unshaded land. In modern usage, it is less frequently employed as a standalone character and is primarily encountered in classical literature, certain names, or as a component in other complex characters, illustrating the evolution and simplification of Chinese script over time.
