Unicode Version 17.0
昨
U+6628 "昨" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "yesterday" or "the past," and it is composed of the radical for "sun" or "day" (日) combined with a phonetic component that suggests the sound "zuo." In modern Chinese and Japanese writing, this character is commonly used in words related to time, such as "昨天" (zuótiān) for "yesterday" in Mandarin, and it holds a fundamental place in daily communication for referencing the day immediately preceding today. Historically, its structure visually connects the concept of a past day through the sun radical, reflecting how the character conveys the idea of what has already occurred.
