U+71F6 "燶" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
燶
U+71F6 "燶" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character used primarily in Cantonese and classical Chinese texts, where it functions as a verb meaning "to burn" or "to scald" often in the context of cooking or scorching by heat. Composed of the radical for fire (火, 灬) on the bottom and a phonetic component on top, it is traditionally associated with the act of burning food slightly until it is brown or charred, particularly in culinary descriptions. This character falls within the CJK Unified Ideographs block, which encompasses Han characters from Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and other East Asian writing systems, and is encoded in Unicode to preserve its distinct semantics and usage in historical and regional documentation.
