What does 𪹥 mean in Chinese and Japanese?
Its readings depend on the language and context. As of 2026, Chinese dictionaries list 𪹥 as an uncommon variant of 灿, the common simplified character for “bright” or “radiant.” Taiwan’s 2024 CNS table records it for household registration with the Mandarin reading jì. Japanese records classify it as a kokuji—a kanji formed in Japan—and give はためく, “to flutter.” Vietnamese dictionaries give the Sino-Vietnamese reading xán; Hán-Việt is the Vietnamese reading tradition for Chinese-derived characters.
A history of China’s Ming dynasty records the Heng prince’s name as 厚𪹥. In a personal name, treat 𪹥 as that person’s written character; the dictionary link to “bright” does not guarantee that meaning.
A rare character whose reading depends on the language and whether it appears in a name.
A personal name does not automatically carry the dictionary gloss “bright.”
