U+796E "祮" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+796E "祮" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character that falls under the radical 示 (meaning "spirit" or "altar") and is typically associated with ancestral worship or rituals, specifically referring to a type of wooden tablet used to mark the order of generations in a family temple. This character is classified within the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) unified ideographs block and is considered an archaic or obscure glyph, seldom used in modern writing but occasionally found in classical texts or historical records dealing with genealogy and ceremonial rites. Its structure combines the "示" radical with a phonetic component, reflecting traditional logographic principles, and its pronunciation in Mandarin is generally given as "kuài" or "guì," depending on the historical context.
