U+77C8 "矈" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+77C8 "矈" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (Hanzi) that belongs to the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs block, a standardized set of East Asian logograms. This specific character is formed from the radical "目" (eye) and the phonetic component "免" (miǎn), and it conveys the meaning of "to squint" or "to look askance" in classical Chinese contexts. It is a relatively rare character, primarily encountered in historical or literary Chinese texts rather than in modern everyday usage, and its representation in digital form helps preserve the nuance and depth of classical written Chinese across different computing platforms.
