U+817E "腾" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+817E "腾" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (simplified form, with traditional being 騰) that primarily means "to gallop," "to leap," "to rise," or "to soar," evoking a sense of rapid upward movement or energetic motion. It is composed of the radical 月 (meat/flesh) on the left and the phonetic component 滕 (téng) on the right, though in modern interpretation its association with "horse" is often implied through its use in words like 奔腾 (bēnténg, "to gallop" or "to surge"). This character appears frequently in contexts of speed, progress, or exuberance, such as in the phrase 腾飞 (téngfēi, "to take off" or "to soar"), making it a common symbol for ambition and dynamic growth in Chinese writing.
