U+7949 "祉" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
祉
U+7949 "祉" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character commonly used in East Asian languages, particularly in Japanese and Chinese, where it conveys the meaning of "happiness," "blessing," or "prosperity," often associated with divine favor or good fortune. It is frequently found in compound words and phrases, such as the Japanese term "shiawase" (幸福), though more specifically it appears in words related to welfare and auspiciousness, like "social welfare" (福祉) in both Chinese and Japanese contexts. Structurally, the character combines the radical for "spirit" or "deity" (礻) with the phonetic component "止" (meaning "stop" or "cease"), suggesting a connection to spiritual blessings that bring a halt to misfortune.
