U+8CF5 "賵" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+8CF5 "賵" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character used in Classical Chinese and literary contexts, primarily referring to a gift of money or goods presented to a bereaved family to help with funeral expenses. This ideograph combines the radical for "shell" or "money" (貝) with a phonetic component, reflecting its association with material contributions during mourning rites. In historical usage, offering a 賵 was a formal gesture of condolence and social support, distinguishing it from other types of funeral gifts by its specific emphasis on monetary aid. While it is rarely used in modern everyday Chinese, it remains present in classical texts, historical records, and some ceremonial or scholarly references.
