U+6B49 "歉" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
歉
U+6B49 "歉" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily conveys the concept of apology, regret, or feeling sorry, often used in words like "道歉" (dàoqiàn, to apologize) and "歉意" (qiànyì, apology or remorse). It can also denote a sense of inadequacy or deficiency, as seen in "歉收" (qiànshōu, poor harvest) where it describes a shortfall in agricultural yield. Composed of the radical "欠" (qiàn, meaning to lack or owe) alongside components suggesting speech or action, this character intertwines linguistic expression with a sense of moral or material insufficiency, reflecting its nuanced role in formal and emotional communication across Chinese and other East Asian languages.
