Unicode Version 17.0
碁
U+7881 "碁" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "the game of Go," a strategic board game of East Asian origin. It is a compound ideograph combining the radical for "stone" or "rock" with a component related to "foundation" or "base," reflecting the use of stone pieces on a board. This character is used in both traditional and simplified Chinese writing systems, as well as in Japanese kanji, where it is commonly read as "go" and refers specifically to the game. In historical and modern contexts, it represents not only the game itself but also the cultural and intellectual tradition associated with Go, including its philosophy of strategy and balance.
