U+7C5F "籟" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+7C5F "籟" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that primarily means the sound of a wind instrument, such as a flute or a pipe, and by extension, any natural sound produced by wind, like an echo or a rustling in the bamboo. It is composed of the bamboo radical (⺮) on top, indicating a connection to musical instruments made from bamboo, and the phonetic component 賴 below, which suggests its pronunciation. This character appears in classical Chinese texts and poetry to evoke serene, airy, or haunting musical tones, and it is occasionally used in modern contexts to describe the harmonious sounds of nature.
