U+528A "劊" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
劊
U+528A "劊" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that represents the concept of "to cut off" or "to sever," often used in the context of execution or beheading, as it combines the radical for "knife" with a phonetic component. This ideograph carries a historically grim connotation, appearing in classical texts and phrases related to capital punishment or violent cutting, and it is the traditional form of its simplified counterpart "刽". Its usage has declined in modern everyday language due to its harsh meaning, but it remains a recognized character in literary or historical contexts, particularly within Chinese, Japanese, and Korean written traditions where CJK characters are shared.
