U+9584 "閄" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+9584 "閄" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is an extremely rare and obscure Chinese character that appears in the Kangxi Dictionary and is primarily used in toponyms or personal names, with its modern pronunciation typically given as "shǎn" or "méng" and its meaning often recorded as a variant of the character for "door" or "gate," though it is almost never encountered in contemporary written or spoken Chinese. This character is composed of the radical "門" (door) and a phonetic component "勿" (do not), and it holds little practical utility outside of historical or highly specialized lexicographic contexts. Its inclusion in the Unicode standard ensures that it can be digitally represented for scholarly purposes, such as in the study of rare sinographs or the digitization of ancient Chinese texts.
