U+59AA "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character traditionally meaning an elderly woman or a female caregiver, often used in classical texts to refer to an old lady or a motherly figure. This ideograph belongs to the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified block, and its modern usage in Mandarin Chinese includes contexts like narratives or historical references, though it is less common in everyday speech. The character is composed of the radical for "woman" (女) on the left, indicating its gendered meaning, and a phonetic component on the right that suggests its pronunciation, which is pronounced as "yù" in Mandarin.
