U+8D4B "赋" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
赋
U+8D4B "赋" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily conveys the meanings of "to bestow," "to give," "a tax," or "a poetic essay or rhapsody," reflecting a historical and literary richness in its usage. Originating from classical Chinese, it serves as a key term in administrative contexts for levying taxes or granting titles, while in literature, it denotes a specific prose-poetry genre known as "fu," which flourished during the Han dynasty and is characterized by elaborate description and rhythmic structure. This ideograph thus embodies both fiscal and cultural concepts, linking practical governance with the expressive heritage of Chinese letters, and is widely used in modern written Chinese as well.
