U+6B88 "殈" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+6B88 "殈" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that belongs to the radical 歹 (dǎi), which relates to death or decay, and is composed of additional phonetic and semantic elements. In modern usage, this character is relatively rare and carries the meanings of "to kill" or "to slaughter," often associated with a specific context of inflicting harm or violent death. Its structure reflects a traditional composition where the left side indicates the domain of death, while the right side provides phonetic guidance for pronunciation, which in Mandarin is xù. This ideograph appears primarily in classical Chinese texts or specialized literary works rather than in everyday language.
