U+77E5 "知" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+77E5 "知" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a fundamental logogram in the Chinese writing system, as well as in Japanese and Korean, where it is read as "zhi" in Mandarin, "chi" in Japanese, and "ji" in Korean. This character means "to know," "knowledge," or "wisdom," encapsulating the concept of understanding or awareness. It is composed of two primary radicals: the left side is "矢" (shi), meaning "arrow," and the right side is "口" (kou), meaning "mouth," which together symbolically suggest the idea of expressing knowledge swiftly and directly like an arrow from the mouth. As a core element in compound words like "知識" (knowledge) and "知恵" (wisdom), it appears frequently in classical texts, modern media, and everyday communication across East Asian languages.
