U+81C5 "臅" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+81C5 "臅" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character composed of the radical for meat or flesh, 月, combined with a phonetic component suggesting pronunciation related to shǔ or chù. Its traditional meaning pertains to a type of meat or offal, specifically the entrails or internal organs of an animal, though it is not commonly used in modern standard Chinese and appears primarily in classical texts or specialized medical and gastronomic contexts. As an archaic glyph, it exemplifies the depth of the CJK unified ideograph system, which encodes characters from Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Vietnamese historical scripts, preserving obscure lexical items that offer insight into ancient culinary and anatomical terminology.
