U+2F81 "⾁" Kangxi Radical Meat Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
⾁
U+2F81 "⾁" Kangxi Radical Meat is one of the 214 Kangxi radicals used in traditional Chinese character dictionaries, where it represents the concept of flesh, meat, or body parts, often appearing as a component on the left side of a character, such as in 肉 itself. In modern usage, it is distinct from the similar-looking radical for moon (月) but historically shares a common origin, and it is encoded in the Unicode Kangxi Radicals block to support historical and philological text processing. This radical is also found in characters related to the body, like 胃 (stomach) and 肚 (belly), making it essential for understanding the semantic roots of many Chinese characters.
