U+5338 "匸" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+5338 "匸" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character used in East Asian scripts, primarily in classical and modern Chinese, with a pronunciation roughly like "xì" in Mandarin. Its original meaning relates to "to hide" or "to conceal," derived from its pictographic representation of a box or container with a lid, suggesting something covered or enclosed. In modern usage, it is rare as a standalone character and appears mostly in compound words or as a radical in other ideographs, such as in the character "區" (region or area), where it serves as a semantic component indicating enclosure. Overall, 匸 is a niche but historically significant part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) character set.
