U+8CD8 "賘" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
賘
U+8CD8 "賘" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare or obsolete Chinese logograph found in historical or classical texts, with its meaning and usage often tied to contexts involving wealth, trade, or material goods, as suggested by its radical 貝 (shell, symbolizing money or value). This character is not commonly used in modern standard Chinese, Japanese, or Korean writing systems, and its exact definition may vary depending on the specific historical dictionary or regional variant. Due to its infrequent occurrence, it is predominantly of interest to scholars of ancient scripts, linguists studying character etymology, or those working with specialized digital font sets that support a vast array of CJK characters.
