U+2FBA "⾺" Kangxi Radical Horse Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
⾺
U+2FBA "⾺" Kangxi Radical Horse is one of the 214 Kangxi radicals, specifically radical 187, which represents the concept of a horse and is used as a key component in many Chinese characters related to horses, riding, or equine characteristics. This radical is a stylized, square-shaped version of the traditional Chinese character for horse, and it appears in the Kangxi Dictionary as a semantic element that aids in categorizing and defining characters. Within the Unicode standard, it serves as a reference for historical and calligraphic contexts, particularly in encoding variants of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) character set that preserve the radical's distinct form.
