U+793A "示" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+793A "示" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a foundational Chinese character meaning "to show," "to indicate," or "to manifest," and it also functions as a radical (shì zì páng) in many other characters, usually appearing on the left side or at the top. In its ancient oracle bone script form, it depicted an altar or a table with offerings to heaven or spirits, linking it to religious rituals and signs from the divine. This character is integral to words like "指示" (zhǐshì, to instruct) and "表示" (biǎoshì, to express or represent), and it forms the basis for the radical 113, which is commonly associated with concepts of blessing, prayer, and spiritual matters in East Asian written languages.
