U+9EF3 "黳" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+9EF3 "黳" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character that typically signifies the color black, often specifically referring to a black, dark, or sooty appearance, and it is sometimes associated with ink or a black mole on the skin. It belongs to the "CJK Unified Ideographs" block, which encompasses traditional and simplified Chinese characters as well as characters from Japanese Kanji and Korean Hanja. This character is not common in modern daily usage but may appear in classical literary texts or specialized contexts where precise descriptions of darkness or blackness are needed. Its structure combines the radical for "black" (黑) with a phonetic component, highlighting its semantic connection to dark hues. Overall, "黳" represents a niche but historically grounded part of the CJK writing system.
