U+7F81 "羁" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
羁
U+7F81 "羁" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means to restrain, control, or tie up, often used in contexts involving bridling a horse or metaphorically referring to restraint in a broad sense. It is composed of the radical "罒" (net) on top and the phonetic component "革" (leather) below, reflecting its original connection to horse tack and harnesses. In modern usage, it appears in words like "羁绊" (jībàn), meaning fetters or hindrance, and "羁留" (jīliú), meaning to detain or stay in a place. Its Unicode encoding allows for consistent digital representation across systems, preserving its role in both classical literature and contemporary Chinese language.
