Han character 忬

忬 is a historical Han character with two variant branches: 預/豫 (“beforehand”) and 舒/紓 (“relieve, relax”). Japanese dictionaries also preserve a reading tied to doing things beforehand or being at peace.

Text symbol

What 忬 means

It has two documented variant branches with different readings. A Japanese dictionary manuscript, Shinsen Jikyō, cites the Chinese dictionary Yupian.

Mandarin yù links to 預/豫 (“beforehand”), and shū to 舒/紓 (“relieve, relax”). Japanese entries preserve yo for acting beforehand or being at peace.

Historical and specialist; reading and context determine which branch you mean.

Do not merge the yù and shū branches into one gloss.

Why does 忬 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.
