U+919C "醜" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+919C "醜" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character historically used to denote the concept of "ugly," "shameful," or "unsightly" in both appearance and moral character, and it appears in classical texts such as the Confucian analects. In modern usage, it has largely been simplified to the form 丑 in Mainland China and Singapore, while the traditional character 醜 remains in use in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and other regions. The character is composed of the radical 酉 (wine or fermentation) and the phonetic component 鬼 (ghost), with the combined meaning often interpreted as something grotesque or deformed, like a ghostly apparition associated with spoiled wine. In Japanese, it also carries similar connotations of ugliness or disgrace, and appears in compound words such as 醜い (minikui, meaning "ugly").
