Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+5356 "卖" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to sell" or "to betray." It is a simplified form of the traditional character "賣," and its structure combines the radical for "ten" or "cross" on top with the character for "shell" or "money" below, reflecting the historical association of trade with valuable goods and currency. Used frequently in modern Chinese, it appears in words like "买卖" (buying and selling) and "出卖" (to betray or sell out). This character is part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs block in the Unicode standard, which was created to encode common East Asian logographic scripts.
