CJK Compatibility Ideograph FA8A

393/472

慠 is the legacy encoded form of 慠, a Chinese variant of 傲 with the sense “arrogant” or “haughty.” For ordinary Chinese prose, use 傲; this exact character matters when text must round-trip through an older Korean character set. Compatibility normalization turns it into 慠, so its original encoding no longer survives.

Text symbol

What 慠 means

It represents 慠, a Chinese variant of 傲 meaning arrogance.

FA8A was kept for a matching entry in KPS 10721-2000, a Korean character-set standard, so converting text to that set and back can preserve its source position. Unicode compatibility normalization, such as NFKC or NFKD, converts 慠 to 慠.

A Qin-era inscription uses 慠 to describe six earlier rulers as arrogant and fierce. Japanese also has the compound 慠慢 for arrogance.

Archival/technical: it preserves a legacy encoding distinction, not a separate everyday meaning.

Use 傲 for ordinary Chinese text; keep 慠 only when retaining its legacy source form.

Why does 慠 show as a box on some devices?

Not every system ships a font for the CJK Compatibility Ideographs block. Where none is installed, the character shows as an empty box; adding a font such as Noto fixes it. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.
