U+769A "皚" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
皚
U+769A "皚" CJK Unified Ideograph is a Chinese ideograph that means "white" or "pure white", often used to describe snow or frost. It is composed of the radical for "white" (白) on the left and the phonetic component "豈" on the right. In Mandarin Chinese, it is pronounced "ái" and can be found in classical literature and poetry to evoke imagery of brilliant, unblemished whiteness, such as in the phrase "皚皚白雪" meaning "pure white snow". The character is part of the CJK Unified Ideographs block and is used across various East Asian languages, including Japanese and Korean, though it is most commonly associated with written Chinese.
