U+6B7F "歿" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
歿
U+6B7F "歿" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that primarily means "to die" or "death," often carrying a slightly formal or literary connotation compared to its more common counterpart "死." It is composed of the radical "歹" (meaning "evil" or "death" and associated with decay) on the left, and a phonetic component on the right. Historically, "歿" appears in classical texts, such as in the phrase "病歿" (to die of illness), and remains in use in modern written Chinese, particularly in legal, historical, or literary contexts where a more dignified or nuanced reference to death is desired.
