忢 character

4579/20992

忢 is a rare variant of 悟, meaning “realize” or “wake.” If someone sent you 忢 alone, read it as 悟; the unusual layout may be deliberate or a typo. Older dictionaries link it to 𢛤, an ancient form of 悟.

Text symbol

What 忢 means

It means 悟: to realize or wake up.

Chinese and Japanese dictionaries record 忢 as a shortened form of 悟. 說文解字, an early Chinese dictionary, calls 𢛤 an ancient form of 悟. Older dictionaries link 悟 by borrowing to 寤 (“wake”) and 晤 (“meet”). As of 2026-10-08, a box can mean the font or software lacks this glyph.

Rare and dictionary-like.

For the standard written form, use 悟; 忢 may be mistaken for a typo.

Why does 忢 show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
