Unicode Version 17.0
⻰
U+2EF0 "⻰" CJK Radical C-Simplified Dragon is a typographic component used in Chinese character writing as the simplified form of the traditional "dragon" radical, which appears in characters related to dragons, power, or mythical imagery. It belongs to the CJK Radicals Supplement block and is derived from the cursive-style simplification of the complex traditional dragon character, serving as a structural element in modern Simplified Chinese texts. This radical often conveys the meaning of "dragon" or "imperial" when used as a component in compound characters, and it is historically rooted in the simplification process that aimed to reduce stroke counts for easier writing and learning.
