Unicode Version 17.0
⼪
U+2F2A "⼪" Kangxi Radical Lame is a graphical representation of the 44th radical in the Kangxi system of 214 radicals, known as "lame" or "limping," which is derived from the Chinese character 尢 (wang). This radical is typically found on the left side of a complex character and conveys a meaning related to disability, weakness, or abnormality in limb movement, as seen in characters like 尢 itself or 尵. Historically, it originates from a pictograph of a person with a bent or deformed leg, and its usage in traditional Chinese script classification helps organize characters by semantic themes, serving as a key component for lookup and understanding in lexicography.
