U+9ECA "黊" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
黊
U+9ECA "黊" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character classified under the radical for yellow (黄), and it historically denotes a bright or brilliant yellow color, often associated with the hue of gold or fine jade. This character appears in classical Chinese texts and dictionaries, such as the Kangxi Dictionary, where it is defined as a vivid yellow shade, though it is not commonly used in modern standard Chinese. Its structure combines the yellow radical with a phonetic component, reflecting the traditional method of character formation in the Chinese writing system. As a historical and specialized term, "黊" serves as a linguistic artifact representing the nuanced color vocabulary of classical literature.
