U+7646 "癆" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
癆
U+7646 "癆" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character traditionally meaning "consumption" or "tuberculosis," specifically referring to a chronic, wasting disease, often of the lungs, in classical medical texts. It belongs to the radical for sickness or disease, and its structure combines elements suggesting both illness and the concept of working or toiling, reflecting the historical belief that overwork and exhaustion could lead to such debilitating conditions. In modern simplified Chinese, this character is less commonly used, having been replaced or merged with other terms for tuberculosis, but it remains a significant term in literary and historical contexts.
