U+618E "憎" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
憎
U+618E "憎" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (referred to as a Hanzi in Chinese and Kanji in Japanese) that primarily means "hate," "detest," or "abhor." Composed of the radical 忄 (heart) on the left side, which indicates emotion or feeling, and the phonetic component 曾 (formerly meaning "increase" or "layer") on the right, this character conveys a strong sense of aversion or deep-seated resentment. It appears frequently in both classical and modern East Asian texts, often in words like 憎恨 (zēnghèn, meaning "hatred") or 憎悪 (zōo in Japanese, meaning "hatred" or "detestation"), and is used to express negative emotional states in literature, daily conversation, and formal writing.
