U+52BC "劼" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
劼
U+52BC "劼" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that primarily conveys the meanings of "steady," "diligent," or "cautious," often implying a careful and persistent effort in one's actions. Its composition combines the radical "力" (strength or power) with the phonetic component "吉" (which alone denotes good fortune), suggesting a nuanced association between careful exertion and favorable outcomes. Historically, "劼" appears in classical Chinese texts as a descriptor for someone who is conscientiously attentive to their duties, though it is not among the most commonly used characters in modern standard Chinese, where its usage is often limited to classical or literary contexts or personal names.
