U+2ECA "⻊" CJK Radical Foot Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+2ECA "⻊" CJK Radical Foot is a component used in the Chinese writing system and other CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) scripts, representing the radical for "foot" or "leg" in traditional character composition. This radical, also known as Kangxi radical 157, appears in characters related to actions or parts of the body involving the foot, such as 路 (road) and 跳 (jump), often simplified to the form "⻊" when used as a left-side component. It is distinct from the full character 足 (zú), which means "foot" or "enough," and serves as a semantic clue to the meaning of compound characters. In Unicode, it was included in the CJK Radicals Supplement block to standardize the representation of these traditional structural elements for digital text and font systems.
