U+8ACC "諌" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+8ACC "諌" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character traditionally used in East Asian writing systems, particularly in classical Chinese and Japanese contexts. It represents the concept of remonstrance or admonition, specifically referring to the act of offering frank and often bold advice or criticism to a superior, such as a ruler or elder, with the intention of guiding them toward better decisions. The character is composed of the radical for "speech" on the left side, indicating its connection to verbal expression, and a phonetic component on the right that suggests its pronunciation. While less common in modern simplified Chinese, it remains significant in historical texts and formal literary works, embodying a Confucian ideal of loyal and upright counsel.
