U+5962 "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese logograph that primarily means "extravagant," "luxurious," or "wasteful," often conveying a sense of excessive opulence or lavishness in conduct or lifestyle. Composed of components suggesting abundance and self, its semantic range includes both material excess, as in 奢侈 (shēchǐ, meaning "luxury" or "extravagance"), and moral or behavioral connotations of indulgence and overdoing. Historically, the character appears in classical texts like the I Ching and is used in modern Chinese, Japanese, and Korean contexts to critique excessive consumption or to describe high-end products. In Unicode, it is encoded under the CJK Unified Ideographs block, reflecting its standard representation across East Asian writing systems.
