U+6BB5 "段" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
段
U+6BB5 "段" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a logogram used in multiple East Asian writing systems, including Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, where it carries the core meaning of a section, segment, step, or stage. In Chinese, it is frequently employed in words like "段落" (paragraph or phase) and "阶段" (stage or period), and it also appears in the context of duan, a traditional unit of length for fabric. In Japanese, it is a key character in the term "段々" (gradually) and in the names for grading systems, such as in martial arts ranks. The character's structure combines the radical for "halberd" or "weapon" with a phonetic component, reflecting its historical composition as a pictophonetic character.
