U+894E "襎" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+894E "襎" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character used primarily in historical or classical texts rather than in modern everyday language. It is composed of the radical 衣 (yī, meaning "clothing") on the left and the phonetic component 番 (fān) on the right, suggesting a connection to garments or textile-related meanings. While its exact definition is obscure and often not found in common dictionaries, it is generally understood to refer to a type of long robe or a fringed garment, appearing in ancient literature or specialized lexicons. This character belongs to the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) unified ideographs block of Unicode, ensuring that even seldom-encountered glyphs are digitally preserved for scholarly and archival purposes.
