U+7959 "祙" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+7959 "祙" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character composed of the radical for "spirit" or "deity" (礻) on the left and the phonetic component "末" (mò) on the right, generally meaning a type of ancestral shrine or a place for spirit tablets in traditional contexts. Not commonly used in modern standard Chinese, it appears in classical texts and historical records, particularly in relation to memorial halls or ceremonial spaces dedicated to ancestors. This character is distinct from the more common character "袂" (mèi, meaning sleeve) due to the different radical, and its usage helps preserve the nuanced vocabulary of ancient Chinese architecture and ritual practices.
