U+4EA2 "亢" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+4EA2 "亢" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character primarily meaning "high," "proud," or "excessive," and it also carries the sense of "to resist" or "to be overbearing." In classical Chinese texts, it often appears in compounds like 亢奋 (kàngfèn), meaning "excited" or "hyperactive," and its form consists of two strokes at the top above a radical that resembles "human legs" or "walking," linking it to concepts of rising or standing tall. This character is part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) unified ideographs block, used in East Asian scripts with historical roots in late Han dynasty script forms.
