U+7691 "皑" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+7691 "皑" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character primarily used in modern and classical texts, meaning "pure white" or "snowy white," often describing snow, frost, or bright white surfaces. It is a simplified form of the traditional character "皚," and its composition combines the radical "白" (white) with a phonetic component "豈" (qi), though the simplified version uses "岂." This character appears in literary descriptions of pristine landscapes, such as "皑皑白雪" (bright white snow), and is commonly found in poetic and formal written Chinese. Its usage is standard in both Simplified Chinese (mainland China) and Traditional Chinese (Taiwan and Hong Kong) contexts, though it is more frequently encountered in written than spoken language.
