U+7AAE "窮" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
窮
U+7AAE "窮" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that primarily means "poor," "destitute," or "exhausted," and it also conveys the sense of reaching an extreme or limit in various contexts, such as "end" or "extremity." Composed of the radical for "cave" or "hole" (穴) and the phonetic component (躬), its original meaning is often interpreted as being trapped or confined, leading to the broader concepts of poverty and hardship. This character is used in both Classical Chinese and modern East Asian languages, including Japanese and Korean, and appears in common terms like "貧窮" (poverty) and "窮境" (difficult situation), reflecting its enduring significance in expressing states of lack or extremity.
