U+899B "覛" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
覛
U+899B "覛" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and ancient Chinese character that traditionally combines the radical for "see" or "vision" (見) with a phonetic component, and it is generally understood to mean "to see" or "to perceive" in a subtle or indirect sense, often implying a covert or stealthy observation. This character appears in classical Chinese texts, including the "Erya" dictionary, where it is defined as meaning "to spy" or "to examine secretly." As a CJK Unified Ideograph, it is part of the East Asian writing system, though it is not commonly used in modern Chinese, Japanese, or Korean, and its usage is largely confined to historical or scholarly contexts.
