U+6BA9 "殩" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+6BA9 "殩" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character that primarily relates to the concept of death, specifically meaning "to give a funeral feast to the dead" or "to bid farewell to the deceased with a ceremonial meal." This character belongs to the "殳" (radical 79) category, often associated with actions involving a hand holding a weapon or implement, though here it combines with the "歹" (death or decay) radical to emphasize funerary rites. Its usage in classical Chinese texts is extremely limited, and it is not commonly found in modern standard Mandarin, appearing mainly in historical or highly specialized lexicons. The character has no conventional simplified form and is rarely encountered outside of academic study of archaic or ritualistic terminology.
