U+31CD "㇍" CJK Stroke Hzw Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
㇍
U+31CD "㇍" CJK Stroke Hzw is a specific ideographic stroke used in Chinese character (Hanzi) writing, representing a horizontal zigzag stroke that changes direction multiple times, often found in complex characters to denote a wavy or sharply turning horizontal line. This stroke is part of the CJK Strokes block in Unicode, which standardizes the individual components used to build Chinese, Japanese, and Korean characters, aiding in text processing, font design, and handwriting recognition. By encoding such stroke forms, Unicode supports the precise representation of calligraphic and typographic elements essential for East Asian scripts.
