U+66EB "曫" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+66EB "曫" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and mostly obsolete Chinese character that historically denoted the time of dusk or twilight, specifically the period when the sun has set and darkness begins to fall. It is composed of the radical 日 (sun, day) combined with a phonetic component, and its usage appears in classical Chinese texts rather than in modern vernacular. This character is seldom used in contemporary writing, making it a nonstandard or extinct term in everyday language, though it remains encoded for historical and scholarly purposes within the Unicode standard for East Asian scripts.
