U+9613 "阓" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
阓
U+9613 "阓" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily refers to a gate or entrance to a market, specifically the outer gate of a market in ancient times. It is composed of the radical 门 (mén, meaning "gate" or "door"), which conveys its architectural association, and the phonetic component 贵 (guì, meaning "expensive" or "precious"), contributing to its pronunciation in Mandarin as "huì" or "kuài". In classical Chinese texts, "阓" appears in descriptions of bustling marketplaces or thoroughfares, emphasizing the gateway's role as a point of access or commerce. This character is relatively rare in modern usage, often found in historical or literary contexts rather than everyday writing.
