U+5C4A "届" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
U+5C4A "届" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that fundamentally means "to arrive," "to reach," or "to be due," and is also commonly used to signify a "term" or "session," as in an official meeting or a period of tenure. Its composition combines the radical for a corpse or body (尸, suggesting something that extends or covers) with the character for "by" or "to" (由), which together imply the reaching of a limit or the conclusion of a set timeframe. In modern usage, it appears frequently in words like "do" (到达, meaning to arrive), "due date" (到期, as for a payment or deadline), and "first term" (第一届, for the first session of a conference or the first year of a school grade), making it a common and functional element in both written and spoken Chinese across formal and everyday contexts.
