U+659E "斞" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+659E "斞" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character traditionally meaning a dry measure for grain, specifically equivalent to one half of a hu (斛) or about five dou (斗), though its exact capacity varied historically. It is composed of the radical 斗 (dǒu, meaning "dipper" or "liquid measure") on the right, indicating its association with volume, and the phonetic component 臾 (yú) on the left, which provides a clue to its pronunciation. This character appears in classical Chinese texts, such as the Zhou Li and other ancient documents concerning weights and measures, but it is rarely used in modern Chinese, having been largely supplanted by standardized measurements and simpler characters.
