U+7F2A "缪" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
缪
U+7F2A "缪" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily functions as a surname or a component in classical and modern texts, where it can also denote meanings related to silk, intricacy, or error depending on context. Its usage appears in historical records, including the famous Chinese idiom "未雨绸缪" (wèi yǔ chóu móu), meaning to prepare before trouble arises, though in that phrase the character is often written as "绸缪" with a slightly different pronunciation and tone. In its standalone form, "缪" can also be a variant of other characters in classical literature, adding layers of ambiguity that require careful interpretation based on the surrounding text.
