Unicode Version 17.0
⼆
U+2F06 "⼆" Kangxi Radical Two is a typographic representation of the second radical from the Kangxi dictionary system, which symbolizes the number two or the concept of duality and is used in written Chinese to form characters related to pairs, division, or doubling. This radical, known in Chinese as "èr," often appears at the top or bottom of complex characters, such as in 五 (five) or 云 (cloud), and serves as a foundational component in the classification of thousands of Chinese characters. Its design consists of two parallel horizontal strokes, reflecting the simplicity and clarity of the numeral it represents.
