Unicode Version 17.0

朠

U+6720 "朠" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) used historically in literary and classical texts. Its meaning is associated with the light or radiance of the moon, often described as the soft, bright glow cast by the moonlight, and it can also refer to a type of ritual vessel in some ancient contexts. The character is composed of the radical for "moon" or "month" (月) on the left, combined with a phonetic component on the right, and it is extremely rare in modern usage, primarily appearing in specialized dictionaries or historical records rather than contemporary writing.
