U+808D "肍" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+808D "肍" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and highly specific Chinese character traditionally categorized under the "meat" or "flesh" radical (月), and its primary meaning relates to the sinews or tendons of an animal, particularly describing the tough, stringy connective tissue near the neck or within meat. Historically referenced in classical Chinese texts such as the Shuo Wen Jie Zi, this character was used to denote a particular part of animal anatomy rather than appearing in modern everyday language, making it a specialized element of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideograph set. In modern usage, it is extremely uncommon, often found only in historical lexicons or academic discussions of ancient Chinese dietary or medical terminology.
