U+6B22 "欢" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+6B22 "欢" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily conveys the meaning of "joy," "happiness," or "to delight in," and is a simplified form of the traditional character "歡," which incorporates the radical for "lack" or "imperfect" combined with the phonetic component for "bird," historically evoking the idea of joyful chirping. In modern usage, it appears commonly in words like "欢乐" (joyful) and "欢迎" (welcome), and it belongs to the East Asian CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideograph block, where it is encoded for digital text representation across multiple languages. Its radical in simplified Chinese is "欠" (meaning "lack" or "to yawn"), though the character is no longer pictographically linked to birds in its current form, acting instead as a standard logogram for positive emotion in written communication.
