U+59D5 "姕" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+59D5 "姕" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare or obsolete Chinese character composed of two radical components, typically interpreted as a combination of "woman" (女) and "this" (此), though its exact historical usage and meaning are not well documented in modern standard Chinese. It appears in classical texts or archaic dictionaries, where it may have been used as a phonetic loan or a variant form for other characters. In contemporary contexts, "姕" is largely considered a ghost character or a graphic variant with little to no practical application in writing or digital communication, making its primary significance its codification in the Unicode Standard for historical and research purposes.
