U+81C3 "臃" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+81C3 "臃" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that primarily means "swollen" or "obese," often describing a state of puffiness or excessive bulkiness. It is composed of the radical 月 (肉, flesh or body) on the left, indicating a physical or bodily context, and the phonetic component 雍 on the right. In modern usage, it appears in terms like "臃肿" (yōng zhǒng), which means bloated, cumbersome, or overstaffed, reflecting both literal bodily swelling and figurative organizational inefficiency. The character is part of the CJK Unified Ideographs block and is used in traditional and simplified Chinese, as well as in Japanese and Korean hanja, though its frequency of use varies across these languages.
