U+9FB5 "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+9FB5 "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare or obsolete Chinese character that typically represents a variant form of the component radical for "hand" or "action," often related to reaching, holding, or grasping. This ideograph is classified under the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) Unified Ideographs block, which includes characters from historical and modern East Asian scripts. Its appearance is characterized by a stylized depiction of a hand with extended fingers, and it is most commonly encountered in classical or ancient texts, where it may serve as a component in more complex characters rather than as a standalone word in modern usage. Because it is seldom used in contemporary writing, it is not widely supported in all fonts or digital systems, making it a notable example of obscure glyphs preserved in the Unicode standard for scholarly and historical purposes.
