U+7E59 "繙" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

繙

U+7E59 "繙" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that carries the meanings of "to translate" or "to interpret" and is also associated with the act of "turning over" or "leafing through" a text, historically used in the context of translating documents or works. It belongs to the radical group of silk or thread (糸) in the Kangxi radical system, combined with the phonetic component "番" (fan), which suggests a sound related to repeated or sequential action. In classical Chinese and Japanese, this character appears in literary and scholarly contexts, though in modern usage it is less common than simplified equivalents. The character is encoded in the CJK Unified Ideographs block of the Unicode standard, allowing it to be digitally represented across platforms for proper display in East Asian text processing.
