U+5C94 "岔" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
岔
U+5C94 "岔" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily denotes a fork or branching point, such as in a road or path, and by extension conveys the idea of divergence, going astray, or an accident. Its composition combines the radical for "mountain" or "hill" (山) with the character for "part" or "difference" (分), visually and semantically suggesting a split or separation occurring in a natural or geographic context. This character is commonly used in modern Chinese vocabulary in words like "岔路" (branch road) and "打岔" (to interrupt or change the subject), reflecting its core meaning of deviation from a main line or course.
