Unicode Version 17.0
⺗
U+2E97 "⺗" CJK Radical Heart Two is a variant form of the radical that represents the heart or mind in Chinese writing, specifically used as a component in complex characters. This radical, often placed at the bottom or left side of a character, symbolizes emotions, thoughts, or psychological states, and is distinguished from the more common "心" (heart) radical by its simplified shape and specific structural usage in character composition. It appears in characters like "恭" (respect) and "忝" (to shame), where it conveys a sense of inner feeling or intention.
