U+721C "爜" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

爜

U+721C "爜" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and obscure Chinese character classified under the "CJK Unified Ideographs" block, specifically within the Kangxi Radical 86 (火, meaning "fire" or "flame") with an additional phonetic or semantic component that modifies its meaning. This character is not commonly used in modern Chinese or Japanese writing and appears to lack a widely recognized definition or standard pronunciation in contemporary dictionaries, often existing as a historical or variant form from classical texts or specialized lexicons. Its structure suggests it may have been used in ancient or regional contexts to denote a specific concept related to fire or brilliance, but its precise significance remains largely undocumented and obscure.
