U+765F "癟" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
U+765F "癟" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character primarily used in traditional Chinese and Japanese Kanji, representing the concept of being flat, deflated, or shriveled, often describing objects that have lost their fullness, such as a collapsed balloon or a withered fruit. In its composition, it integrates the sickness radical 疒 (indicating an affliction or abnormal state) with the phonetic component 扁 (meaning flat or thin), reflecting a sense of compression or depletion. This character is frequently employed in contexts involving physical deformation, economic downturn (e.g., deflated markets), or metaphorical emptiness, and it appears in premodern texts as well as modern usage, particularly in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Japan, where it contrasts with its simplified counterpart 瘪 in mainland China.
