U+5F8A "徊" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+5F8A "徊" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that appears in several East Asian writing systems, including Japanese and Korean. It belongs to the radical for "to go" or "step" and is commonly used to form words meaning "to wander," "to roam," "to linger," or "to hesitate," often in the context of pacing back and forth or being irresolute. In modern Chinese, it appears in terms like "徘徊" (pái huái), which refers to wandering or pacing hesitantly, and it retains similar connotations in Japanese kanji usage, such as in "徘徊" (haikai) meaning "to wander about." The character combines the "彳" radical, indicating movement or a path, with the phonetic component "回," which also contributes the meaning of "to circle" or "to return," reinforcing the sense of moving in a loop or feeling indecisive.
