U+8214 "舔" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
舔
U+8214 "舔" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to lick" or "to lap up," often used in the context of an animal or person using the tongue to touch or consume something. It appears in modern Chinese and Japanese (as a kanji) and is composed of a "舌" (tongue) component over a "二" (two) element, though it is historically and phonetically tied to the complex ideograph structure. Commonly found in everyday vocabulary, it conveys actions of tasting or gentle contact, and it appears in idioms or phrases related to licking, such as in the term "舔舐" (tiǎn shì) meaning to lick or to tend a wound.
