U+5C3E "尾" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
尾
U+5C3E "尾" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a logogram used in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean writing that primarily means "tail" or "end." Its semantic range includes the literal tail of an animal, as well as figurative meanings such as the rear part of an object, the conclusion of an event, or the residue of a process. In compound words, it appears in terms like "尾巴" (wěiba, tail) in Chinese and "尾行" (bikō, following someone) in Japanese. The character is composed of the radical 尸 (corpse or body) over 毛 (hair or fur), visually suggesting a hairy appendage at the body's extremity, reflecting its ancient conceptualization as a body part that marks the termination of a creature.
