U+996B "饫" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+996B "饫" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character meaning to eat one's fill or to be satiated with food, and it also carries a figurative sense of having one's fill, especially with regard to feasting or overindulgence. Historically used in classical Chinese texts, it is composed of the radical for food (食, shí) on the left, indicating its semantic connection to eating, and a phonetic component on the right. In modern usage, it appears primarily in literary or formal contexts, such as in the expression 饫闻 (yù wén), meaning "to have heard something to the point of being tired of it" or "to be fully informed." This character is not commonly used in everyday conversation but retains significance in written Chinese and in the study of classical literature.
