U+6211 "我" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+6211 "我" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a fundamental Chinese character that means "I" or "me," representing the first-person singular pronoun in modern Mandarin Chinese and other East Asian languages that use Chinese characters, such as Japanese and Korean. Its historical form evolved from ancient oracle bone script, where it originally depicted a type of weapon or tool, but over time its meaning shifted entirely to denote the self. In calligraphy, "我" is written with a distinctive structure featuring a left-side component resembling a hand or weapon and a right-side component that simplifies from a pictographic origin. As one of the most frequently used characters in Chinese text, it appears in countless everyday expressions and is essential for basic communication, while its stroke order and balanced composition make it a common subject in handwriting practice.
