U+8054 "联" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+8054 "联" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to unite," "to join," or "to connect," and it is commonly used in words like "联合" (liánhé, meaning "union" or "to combine") and "联系" (liánxì, meaning "contact" or "connection"). This character is a simplified form derived from the traditional character "聯," and it reflects the concept of linking elements together, often appearing in contexts related to collaboration, associations, or communicative bonds. Its structure combines the radical for "ear" (耳) with additional components, which historically allude to the idea of linking strings or forming a series, making it a vital element in modern Chinese writing for expressing relational and integrative ideas.
