U+8D52 "赒" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+8D52 "赒" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character primarily used in classical and modern written Chinese, where it conveys the meaning of giving financial assistance or aiding someone in need, often with a nuance of charitable relief or alms. This ideograph belongs to the Kangxi radical 贝 (shell, money), and its structure combines a phonetic component with the radical to imply an action related to providing monetary help. In historical texts, it appears in contexts such as government relief efforts or personal acts of generosity, and in contemporary usage, it is most commonly encountered in formal or literary expressions rather than everyday conversation. The character is encoded in the Unicode Standard under the CJK Unified Ideographs block, reflecting its place among East Asian script characters shared across Chinese, Japanese, and Korean writing systems.
