U+8C2B "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that means "shallow" or "superficial," often used in classical and modern Chinese to describe something lacking depth, such as knowledge or understanding. It is part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs block, encoded for consistent digital representation across East Asian languages. The character is composed of the radical for "speech" (讠) and the phonetic component "前" (qian), reflecting its semantic and sound structure. Its usage appears in literary contexts to convey modesty or criticism of superficiality, and it is relatively rare in everyday conversation.
