U+900A "逊" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
逊
U+900A "逊" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character primarily meaning "to yield," "to humble oneself," or "inferior," and it is also used in the context of "to flee" or "to abdicate" in classical texts. It functions as a component in compound words like "谦逊" (qiān xùn, meaning modesty or humble) and "逊色" (xùn sè, meaning inferior or less impressive). The character is composed of the radical "辶" (walk or movement) and the phonetic component "孙" (sūn, meaning grandson), reflecting its semantic and phonetic evolution in the Sinosphere.
