U+8D2B "贫" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
贫
U+8D2B "贫" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (simplified form of 貧) that primarily means "poor," "impoverished," or "lacking." It combines the radical 贝 (bèi, meaning "shell" or "money," indicating wealth or property) with the component 分 (fēn, meaning "divide" or "separate"), suggesting the idea of wealth being divided or insufficient. This character appears frequently in modern Chinese, in words such as 贫穷 (pínqióng, poverty) and 贫乏 (pínfá, scarce), and is also used in Japanese (kanji) and Korean (hanja) contexts with similar meanings, reflecting a shared cultural and linguistic heritage within the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) writing system.
