U+5E93 "库" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+5E93 "库" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that means "warehouse," "storehouse," or "storage," and it is commonly used in both simplified Chinese and Japanese (where it is also written as 庫 in traditional form). This ideograph is composed of the radical 广 (representing a shelter or building) and the phonetic component 车 (the character for "vehicle," which hints at the sound "ku" in Mandarin). In modern usage, it appears in words like 图书馆 (túshūguǎn, meaning library) and 数据库 (shùjùkù, meaning database), and it can be found in historical East Asian texts for describing granaries, armories, or treasuries. As part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs block, it is encoded for digital representation of over 20,000 characters shared across these languages, with its form and meaning subtly differing according to regional writing standards.
