Unicode Version 17.0
衿
U+887F "衿" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character composed of the clothing radical 衤on the left and the phonetic component "今" on the right, meaning the collar or lapel of a garment, and by extension it can also refer to a sash or ribbon tied at the waist. In classical Chinese texts, it frequently appears in literary expressions such as "青衿" (qīng jīn), originally describing the blue collar worn by ancient scholars, which later came to symbolize students and educated individuals, giving the character a strong cultural association with scholarship and refinement. The character is still used in modern Chinese vocabulary in words like "衿持" (jīnchí), meaning to be reserved or prudish in demeanor.
