U+31C8 "㇈" CJK Stroke Hzwg Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+31C8 "㇈" CJK Stroke Hzwg is a specialized graphical component used in the representation of Chinese characters, specifically defined as a stroke abbreviation for "horizontal zigzag." It belongs to the CJK Strokes block, which standardizes the individual brush or pen movements that form East Asian ideographs. This particular stroke is a composite form, combining a horizontal line with a zigzag or wavy segment, and it appears as a distinct writing unit in certain complex characters, particularly in historical or calligraphic contexts. Its inclusion in Unicode ensures that digital text can accurately reproduce the precise stroke order and shape required for scholarly, typographic, and educational use of Chinese, Japanese, and Korean writing systems.
