U+77A8 "瞨" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+77A8 "瞨" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and archaic Chinese character representing an obscure semantic concept primarily associated with the idea of "to look at" or "to view" in a specific or narrow sense, though its exact meaning is often listed as unclear or lost in modern standard dictionaries due to its extreme infrequency of use. This character belongs to the broader set of CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs, which encode historical and modern writing systems within Unicode, and it is composed of the radical for "eye" (目) alongside a phonetic component suggesting pronunciation. In practice, "瞨" is seldom encountered outside of specialized textual research or ancient documents, making it a notable example of how Unicode preserves linguistic heritage by including even the most obsolete and esoteric characters.
