U+55C7 "嗇" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+55C7 "嗇" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that traditionally conveys the meanings of stinginess, frugality, or miserliness. It is composed of the "mouth" radical (口) and the phonetic component "啬," which itself relates to the idea of preserving or hoarding. In various East Asian scripts, including traditional Chinese and Japanese (where it is known as the kanji 嗇), this character appears in contexts describing someone who is reluctant to spend or share, and it also carries a secondary, less common sense of agricultural cultivation or the gathering of crops. Its usage today is somewhat archaic compared to modern simplified alternatives, but it remains recognized in literary, historical, and formal writing.
