U+9719 "霙" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+9719 "霙" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily refers to sleet or a mixture of rain and snow, often described as a kind of frozen precipitation. In classical Chinese literature and poetry, it is also used metaphorically to evoke the imagery of falling snowflakes or icy rain, contributing to a sense of cold or melancholy atmosphere. Beyond its meteorological meaning, the character appears in some contexts as a component in personal names or place names within East Asian cultures, particularly in China and Japan, where it retains its connection to wintry weather. The structure of the character combines the rain radical "雨" on top, indicating its association with weather phenomena, with a phonetic component below that hints at its pronunciation.
