U+8053 "聓" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
聓
U+8053 "聓" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and largely archaic Chinese character that historically appears in classical texts and compounds, though it is not commonly used in modern Mandarin. Its structure combines the radical for "ear" (耳) with the component for "husband" (夫), and it has been associated with meanings related to hearing, listening, or a specific form of respectful attention, particularly in older literary or ritual contexts. Today, it is mostly of interest to scholars of historical Chinese script and paleography, as well as in the study of obscure or variant characters within the Unicode standard.
