U+76E1 "盡" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
U+76E1 "盡" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that conveys the meanings of "exhaust," "finish," "complete," or "to the utmost," often used in words like 盡力 (to do one's best) and 用盡 (to use up). It is composed of the radical 皿 (a vessel or bowl) at the bottom, with the upper part representing a brush or hand, suggesting the idea of wiping a container clean or emptying it entirely. This character appears across multiple East Asian writing systems, including Traditional Chinese, Japanese (where it is part of the Jōyō kanji list), and Korean Hanja, though it is distinct from its simplified Chinese counterpart 尽. In classical literature and idioms, 盡 frequently appears in philosophical and poetic contexts, emphasizing the concept of reaching a limit or achieving full completion, such as in the phrase 盡善盡美 (perfect, literally "exhaust goodness and beauty").
