U+6B28 "欨" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+6B28 "欨" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character (hanzi) that falls under the "CJK Unified Ideographs" block, and is comprised of the radical "欠" (qiàn), meaning "to yawn" or "deficient," combined with the phonetic component "句" (jù). This ideograph historically carries the meaning of to blow gently or to breathe upon, as recorded in classical texts like the Kangxi Dictionary, where it is defined as a form of exhaling or warm breath. Though obsolete in modern standard Mandarin, it survives in literary and philological contexts as a variant or archaic term, reflecting the intricate evolution of character composition in the East Asian writing system.
