U+9947 "饇" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+9947 "饇" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character that primarily relates to the concept of overeating or gluttony, often associated with excessive consumption of food or drink. It is composed of the radical "食" (meaning food or to eat) on the left, combined with a phonetic component on the right, which contributes to its pronunciation and meaning in classical texts. This character appears in historical Chinese dictionaries and literary works, though it is not commonly used in modern Mandarin, making it an example of the deep lexical heritage encoded in the Unicode standard for East Asian scripts.
