U+5991 "妑" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+5991 "妑" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that appears in the standard set of East Asian ideographs, though it is not among the most commonly used modern characters. Its meaning is closely tied to the semantic component for "woman" or "female," as indicated by its left radical (女), and it is typically read in Mandarin as "pā." The character is primarily used in historical or archaic contexts, often appearing in classical texts or as a component in compound names, but it lacks a widely recognized modern dictionary definition. As a result, it is considered a rare or obscure symbol, more of interest to scholars of ancient Chinese literature or paleography than to contemporary speakers.
