Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+5109 "儉" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (Hanzi) that traditionally means "frugal" or "economical," often associated with the virtue of thrift and restraint in personal conduct and resource use. This character is composed of the radical for "person" (亻) on the left, suggesting human action or quality, and a phonetic component on the right that contributes to its pronunciation, typically read as "jiǎn" in Mandarin. It appears in classical texts like the Analects of Confucius, where it denotes a moral principle of moderation, and remains in modern usage across Chinese, Japanese (as "ken"), and Korean (as "geom") scripts within the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideograph block.
