U+2E85 "⺅" CJK Radical Person Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+2E85 "⺅" CJK Radical Person is a variant form of the Kangxi radical for "person," known as radical 9, and is used in East Asian character systems such as Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. This specific glyph, which appears as a narrow, left-slanting stroke followed by a shorter rightward stroke, functions as a component in complex characters, typically denoting a person or human-related meaning. It is classified as a CJK radical, distinct from the standard "人" person radical, and is encoded in the Unicode block for CJK Radicals Supplement to support precise encoding of traditional radical elements in text processing and digital typography.
