U+891B "褛" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
褛
U+891B "褛" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "tattered" or "ragged," often used in the compound word "褴褛" (lánlǚ), which describes clothing that is worn out or in shreds. This character is composed of the radical 衤 (clothing) on the left, indicating its association with garments, and the phonetic component 娄 on the right, which gives a clue to its pronunciation as lǚ in Mandarin. It is used in both Traditional and Simplified Chinese writing systems, though it appears more frequently in literary or descriptive contexts to evoke poverty or shabbiness, and it has no direct equivalent in other CJK languages like Japanese or Korean, where different characters are typically employed for similar meanings.
