Unicode Version 17.0
⽿
U+2F7F "⽿" Kangxi Radical Ear is a graphic representation of the Ear radical, which is the 128th radical in the Kangxi dictionary system and originally derived from the shape of a human ear. This radical is used as a component in traditional Chinese characters to convey meanings associated with hearing, listening, or the ear itself, such as in characters like 聞 (wen, to hear) and 聲 (sheng, sound). As a Unicode character, it is part of the Kangxi Radicals block and serves primarily as a typographic or reference symbol for linguistic and lexicographic purposes, not typically used as a standalone character in modern written Chinese.
