U+7CB9 "粹" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

粹

U+7CB9 "粹" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily denotes purity, essence, or the finest quality of something, often used in contexts like "精粹" meaning quintessence or "粹然" meaning pure and unadulterated. It is composed of the radical 米 (rice), suggesting its original connection to refined grain or polished rice, and the phonetic component 卒 (zu), which contributes to its pronunciation. This character appears in modern Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, where it carries similar connotations of selectness or distillation, such as in the Japanese word "純粋" (junsui) meaning pure. Historically, it has been employed in classical texts to describe the extraction of the most valuable or authentic elements from a larger body, whether in philosophy, art, or craftsmanship.
