U+8107 "脇" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
脇
U+8107 "脇" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese-Japanese character that primarily signifies the armpit or side of the human torso, often used in anatomical contexts in both Mandarin Chinese and Japanese. In Japanese, it also carries extended meanings related to "side" or "flank" as in a supporting role, and it appears in compounds like "脇役" (supporting actor) and "脇道" (side road). While less common in modern standard Chinese, it is recognized as a variant of the character 脅 (xié) in traditional orthography, occasionally appearing in classical or technical texts. The character is composed of the radical 月 (meat/flesh) on the left, indicating body parts, and a phonetic component 劦 on the right.
