U+711C "焜" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+711C "焜" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character composed of the fire radical 火 on the left and the phonetic component 昆 on the right, primarily used in classical and literary contexts to mean bright, shining, or brilliant, often in reference to light or radiance. Its usage appears in ancient texts and poetry, such as in the phrase "焜耀" to describe dazzling brightness, and it is distinct from more common modern characters by its formal and somewhat archaic tone. The character is encoded in the CJK Unified Ideographs block of Unicode, representing a logogram shared across Chinese, Japanese, and Korean written traditions, though it is rarely used in everyday contemporary writing.
