U+70A0 "炠" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+70A0 "炠" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (Hanzi) used primarily in historical or classical texts, where it is understood to mean "to burn" or "to roast." This character combines the fire radical (火) with a phonetic component (乇 or similar) to convey its meaning related to heat or flame. It is a relatively rare character in modern Chinese and is not commonly used in everyday writing, but it can appear in literary contexts or in the transcription of ancient names. As part of the CJK Unified Ideographs block, it contributes to the vast system of Chinese character encoding that supports historical and regional variants of Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Vietnamese writing.
