Unicode Version 17.0

U+89C9 "觉" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character with rich semantic depth, traditionally meaning "to feel," "to sense," "to be aware," or "to awaken." In its simplified Chinese form, it corresponds to the traditional character "覺" (U+89BA), and it plays a key role in words related to perception and consciousness, such as "感觉" (sense) and "自觉" (consciousness). The character is composed of the radical "见" (to see) combined with other phonetic and semantic elements, reflecting its historical link to visual awareness and insight. In Buddhist contexts, "觉" often signifies enlightenment or awakening, as in "觉悟" (awakening). This ideograph is essential for expressing concepts of mental awareness and physical sensation across various registers of the Chinese language.
