U+7D27 "紧" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+7D27 "紧" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "tight," "tense," "urgent," or "close," and it is composed of the radical for silk (纟) combined with other elements, reflecting its historical connection to the tight binding or stretching of threads. In modern standard Chinese, it is commonly used in words expressing pressure, urgency, or proximity, such as in "紧张" (jǐnzhāng, meaning nervous or tense) and "紧急" (jǐnjí, meaning urgent or emergency). This character appears across multiple East Asian writing systems, including simplified Chinese (without the traditional right side component present in its variant form), and it occupies the 27th position in the Unicode CJK Unified Ideographs block, serving as a fundamental component for digital text representation and cross-platform language support.
