U+79EA "秪" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
秪
U+79EA "秪" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that primarily means "only" or "merely" in classical texts, though it is less common in modern usage and often confused with the more prevalent character 祇 (qí/zhǐ). Its composition includes the radical 禾 (grain) on the left, suggesting a connection to agriculture or grains, and the phonetic component 氐 (dī) on the right, which provides a clue to its pronunciation in certain contexts. Originating from ancient Chinese scripts, this character appears in historical dictionaries and literature, but today it is rarely used in everyday writing, making it a niche but notable entry in the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideograph set.
