Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+5EF6 "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily conveys the meanings of "to extend," "to prolong," "to delay," or "to invite." It is constructed with the radical "廴" (meaning "long stride" or "stretch") on the lower left, with phonetic and semantic components above, and it appears as a common component in words related to temporal or spatial extension, such as "延長" (prolong or extend) and "延遲" (delay). In classical and modern Chinese, "延" also carries the sense of inviting or receiving, as in "延請" (to invite someone formally). This character is used across multiple East Asian languages, including Japanese and Korean, where it retains similar meanings related to elongation or postponement.
