U+52D5 "動" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
動
U+52D5 "動" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a complex East Asian ideograph that means "move" or "act" in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, where it is commonly used in words related to motion, action, or change. This character combines the semantic radical "力" (strength or power) with a phonetic component on the left, reflecting its traditional composition that conveys the idea of exerting force to cause movement. In practical use, "動" appears in terms like "動作" (movement or operation) in Chinese and "動画" (video or animation) in Japanese, highlighting its relevance to both physical and abstract concepts of motion across these languages.
