U+664C "晌" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
晌
U+664C "晌" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character commonly used in modern and classical texts, primarily carrying the meaning of noon, midday, or a short period of time, such as a spell or a while. It is composed of the radical 日 (sun, day) on the left and the phonetic component 向 (xiàng) on the right, reflecting both its semantic association with daylight and its pronunciation in Mandarin. In everyday contexts, "晌" appears in words like 晌午 (shǎngwǔ, meaning "midday") and 半晌 (bànshǎng, meaning "half a day or quite a while"). This character is encoded in the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) Unified Ideographs block of the Unicode standard, where it serves as a functional component in written East Asian languages.
