Unicode Version 17.0
裈
U+88C8 "裈" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily refers to a type of traditional undergarment or short pants, often specifically meaning a loincloth or a style of briefs worn in ancient China. It belongs to the radical for clothing and appears in classical literature, including historical texts that describe everyday attire from earlier dynasties. While not commonly used in modern spoken Chinese, it remains relevant in scholarly contexts, such as the study of historical fashion or in reading certain literary works, and its composition combines the clothing radical with a phonetic component that suggests its pronunciation.
