U+2E99 "⺙" CJK Radical Rap Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
⺙
U+2E99 "⺙" CJK Radical Rap is a Kangxi radical, number 67 in the traditional radical system, representing the concept of a "snare" or "net" and often associated with capturing or gathering. Found primarily in historical and linguistic contexts, this radical is used as a component in certain Chinese characters, typically appearing in the upper portion of a character to indicate a net-like or enclosing action. It is distinct from the simplified version of the same radical, which is often written as "罒" in modern Chinese scripts. As a Unicode entry, "⺙" preserves the ancient calligraphic form for digital text processing and scholarly reference.
