cjk unified ideograph-22ff4

Han character xī

12277/42720

In HTML, use 𢿴, and in a JavaScript string write \u{22FF4}. Its Mandarin reading is xī; old dictionaries link it to 㪧 (“strike”) or 㩉 (“tie or fasten”). If it appears as a box, the font may be missing its glyph.

What 𢿴 means

The gloss depends on which linked dictionary entry you follow. The Kangxi Dictionary, a Chinese reference work, glosses related form 㪧 as “to strike.” Taiwan’s Ministry of Education variant dictionary records 𢿴 as a form of 㩉 and cites the Song-era Jiyun, a Chinese character dictionary, for “to tie or fasten.” Its sources also list Longkan Shoujing and the Leipian. The entry analyzes the form as 攴/攵 plus 翕, which supplies the sound.
