U+7B2C "第" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
第
U+7B2C "第" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily functions as a grammatical marker for ordinal numbers, meaning "sequence" or "order," and it is pronounced "dì" in Mandarin. Its structure combines the radical for bamboo (⺮) with a component that represents hierarchy or arrangement, reflecting its use in forming terms like "first" (第一) or "second" (第二). Beyond ordinals, it appears in words such as "弟弟" (younger brother) and "第宅" (mansion), where it can also denote a rank or a place in a series. This character is widely used across Chinese, Japanese, and Korean writing systems, making it a fundamental element in East Asian typography and linguistic expression.
