Han character 𨯭

In a supported GNOME or GTK text field, press CtrlShiftU, type 28BED, then press Enter. In Microsoft Word, type 28BED and press AltX. This Han character appears in Chinese personal names; Taiwan's household-registration list gives its Mandarin reading as xuǎn (xuan, third tone). macOS's Unicode Hex Input method stops at four hex digits, so it cannot enter this five-digit value.

Text symbol

What 𨯭 means

In a supported GNOME or GTK text field, use Unicode hex input. Press CtrlShiftU, type 28BED, then press Enter or Space. In Microsoft Word, type 28BED and press AltX. macOS Unicode Hex Input accepts only four hex digits, so its Option-plus-hex method cannot enter 28BED.

What does 𨯭 mean in a name?

It is a Han character documented in personal names. A local-history book records a late-Ming officer named 程𨯭. Taiwan's household-registration list gives it the Mandarin reading xuǎn (third tone). The written form pairs 金, the metal radical, with 選, meaning choose; those pieces explain its structure, not what the person's name means.

Why does 𨯭 appear as a box?

Font coverage. The text can still contain 𨯭 when the selected font lacks its glyph. Taiwan's official character record says Windows 10 and later include the glyph in default fonts.
