U+7FD8 "翘" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+7FD8 "翘" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means to lift, raise, or tilt upward, often conveying a sense of elevation or prominence, such as in the word "翘首" meaning to raise one's head eagerly. It is composed of the radical "羽" (feather) on top and "尧" (a component meaning high or lofty) underneath, reflecting its visual and semantic connection to things that are raised or elevated. In modern usage, it appears in terms like "翘楚" to describe an outstanding person or leading figure, and it is also used in contexts related to physical protrusion, as in "翘起" for something sticking up. The character is encoded in the Unicode standard as part of the CJK Unified Ideographs block, enabling its representation in digital text across languages that use Chinese characters.
