Han character 㻿

2816/6592

㻿 is a dictionary name for a kind of jade. In Mandarin, it sounds roughly like “shoo” with a low tone that dips and rises; pinyin writes it shǔ. Its left-side 玉 is the jade radical, while the right-side 蜀 links it to an old rhyme-dictionary grouping.

Text symbol

What 㻿 means

It names a kind of jade. In Mandarin, it sounds approximately like “shoo” with a low tone that rises; pinyin spells it shǔ. The left-side 玉 is the jade radical, the dictionary index for jade-related characters. Guangyun groups 㻿 with 蜀 by rhyme—a way old Chinese dictionaries sorted readings by sound, not meaning.

A Song-era entry in Guangyun records 玉㻿; Jiyun and Kangxi dictionaries also give it a jade-name gloss. A 2024 Taiwan Ministry of Education entry says Shuowen, an earlier Chinese character dictionary, does not list it.

How do I type 㻿?

Enter MGWLI in the Cangjie input method. Cangjie is an input method that builds Chinese characters from their written parts. If your editor supports Unicode entry, use U3EFF in its Unicode picker or character map.

Lexicographic and specialized: it names a specific kind of jade, rather than a general-purpose word.
