Unicode Version 17.0
腭
U+816D "腭" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a logogram used in the Chinese writing system, traditionally classified as part of the Kangxi radical for "flesh" or "body part" (月). In modern Chinese, it denotes the anatomical term "palate," specifically the roof of the mouth, distinguishing between the hard and soft regions. Its usage extends beyond Mandarin to other languages that adopt Chinese characters, such as Japanese and Korean, where it carries a similar meaning related to oral anatomy. This character is encoded in the CJK Unified Ideographs block of Unicode, representing a standardized glyph for written East Asian languages.
