殃
U+6B83 "殃" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "calamity," "disaster," or "misfortune," and it is often used in classical and modern Chinese texts to convey a sense of harm or suffering that befalls someone or something. Its structure combines the radical for "death" or "bad" (歹) on the left, which hints at its negative connotations, with a phonetic component on the right derived from the character for "center" or "middle" (央). In common usage, it appears in words like "遭殃" (to suffer a disaster) and "殃及" (to bring disaster upon others), and it carries a formal or literary tone, frequently appearing in idioms and historical writings.
