U+5C3D "尽" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
U+5C3D "尽" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to exhaust," "to use up," "to the utmost," or "to fulfill completely." It is composed of the radical 尸 (corpse or house) and the component 尺 (a unit of measurement), though its modern form is simplified from the traditional character 盡, which originally depicted a hand sweeping a brush over a vessel to indicate emptying or finishing. In everyday usage, "尽" appears in common Chinese words such as 尽力 (to do one's best), 尽量 (as much as possible), and 无穷无尽 (endless), conveying a sense of limit, completion, or maximal effort. Its stroke count is six in the simplified script, and as a Han character, it holds significant cultural and linguistic weight in written Chinese, Japanese (as an extended shinjitai form serving as the simplified character for 盡), and other East Asian writing systems.
