U+2E95 "⺕" CJK Radical Snout Two Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
⺕
U+2E95 "⺕" CJK Radical Snout Two is a variant of the Kangxi radical for "snout" or "pig's head," used in the composition of Chinese characters. It is classified under the CJK Radicals Supplement block and serves as a graphic component, often appearing at the top or bottom of complex characters to convey meanings related to animals, faces, or protruding shapes. This radical is distinct from the standard "snout" radical due to its calligraphic variation, and it functions primarily in traditional and historical writing systems where precise stroke shapes are preserved.
