U+71EB "燫" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
燫
U+71EB "燫" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and ancient Chinese character composed of the fire radical (火) on the left and the phonetic component 兼 (jiān) on the right, meaning "to burn, to set fire" but also found with definitions such as "a raging flame" or "to glow." It is not commonly used in modern Mandarin or Japanese, appearing primarily in classical Chinese texts or historical dictionaries like the Kangxi Zidian, where it is associated with intense heat or the act of scorching. This character is encoded in the CJK Unified Ideographs block of the Unicode Standard, representing a logogram from the Chinese writing system that has seen minimal contemporary use outside of specialized scholarly or typographic contexts.
