U+77C5 "矅" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+77C5 "矅" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character composed of the radical 日 (sun) paired with the phonetic component 翟, and its primary meaning relates to the brilliance or dazzling light of the sun or a gem, often evoking a sense of shimmering radiance or luster. In classical literature and historical texts, it occasionally appears as a variant or poetic alternative for characters describing bright, sparkling objects, though it is seldom used in modern standard Chinese or Japanese. Its inclusion in the Unicode standard allows for the accurate digital representation of this obscure yet visually evocative logograph, preserving its connection to traditional East Asian written culture.
