U+896E "襮" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+896E "襮" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Han character used primarily in classical Chinese and literary contexts. It is composed of the clothing radical 衣 on the outside, surrounding the phonetic element 暴, and its traditional meanings relate to the collar or lapel of a garment, as well as the act of exposing or revealing, such as uncovering one's arms or showing off. The character appears in ancient texts like the "Book of Songs" and has been cited in classical dictionaries, where one of its notable definitions includes the concept of an embroidered or decorative collar on a ceremonial robe. Despite its historical significance, "襮" is not commonly used in modern Chinese, making it a specialized character for scholars of classical literature and calligraphy.
