U+6DF8 "淸" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

淸

U+6DF8 "淸" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a variant form of the character commonly known as "清" (qīng in Mandarin), which means "clear," "pure," or "clean." In East Asian typography, this specific glyph is distinguished by a minor difference in the lower right component, where the standard form uses a "⺝" (month) radical and "淸" uses "⺀" (a variant radical often seen in historical or Japanese kanji). It is used in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean writing systems to convey clarity or purity, and appears in contexts such as classical texts, calligraphy, or personal names. Its Unicode inclusion ensures digital representation of this alternate orthographic form across platforms.
