U+5278 "剸" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
剸
U+5278 "剸" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily functions as a verb meaning to cut off, sever, or divide, often used in the context of slicing or separating something with a blade or sharp instrument. It can also carry a secondary sense of taking charge or managing decisively, akin to "deciding upon" or "adjudicating" in classical Chinese texts. The character is composed of the radical 刂 (knife) on the right side, which suggests cutting or action, and the component 專 (specializing or concentrating) on the left, which contributes to its meaning of focused or specific severance. While not commonly used in modern standard Mandarin, 剸 appears in historical literature and specialized terminology.
