U+9159 "酙" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+9159 "酙" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that belongs to the Kangxi radical 164 (酉, meaning "wine" or "alcohol") and is primarily used in traditional and classical texts. It is a variant form of the more common character "斟" (zhēn), which means to pour a drink, to deliberate, or to add a small amount, and "酙" itself specifically carries the connotation of pouring or measuring out liquor, often in a ritualistic or judicious manner. This character is part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideograph set, encoded in the Unicode Standard to support interoperability across digital systems for East Asian languages, though it appears less frequently in modern usage compared to its standard counterpart.
