U+6603 "昃" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+6603 "昃" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that represents the concept of the sun moving past its zenith, often translated as "afternoon" or "to slant" or "to decline." In classical Chinese texts, it is frequently used in the compound "昃食" to describe a ruler or diligent person eating late because they are so occupied with work, symbolizing industriousness and devotion to duty. The character is composed of the sun radical "日" on top and the phonetic component "仄" below, which contributes both to its pronunciation and to the idea of leaning or slanting.
