U+31C6 "㇆" CJK Stroke Hzg Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
㇆
U+31C6 "㇆" CJK Stroke Hzg is a specific glyph used to represent a particular stroke in Chinese character writing, where "Hzg" stands for "horizontal, zigzag" indicating a stroke that moves horizontally and then changes direction in a zigzag pattern. This character belongs to the CJK Strokes block, which was introduced in Unicode version 5.1 to support the description and teaching of Chinese characters by providing individual stroke forms. Unlike full Chinese characters, this stroke unit is employed in handwriting instruction and calligraphy references to denote a precise, continuous motion that combines a horizontal line with a sharp angular turn.
