U+8A8C "誌" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+8A8C "誌" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi), also used in Japanese (kanji) as "shi" and in Korean (hanja) as "ji", which fundamentally means "record," "document," "annals," or "to remember and write down." It is composed of the radical "言" (speech or words) on the left, indicating language or communication, and the phonetic component "志" (ambition or intention) on the right, together conveying the concept of chronicling events or aspirations in writing. This character appears in compound words such as "雑誌" (magazine, literally "miscellaneous record") in Japanese and "日誌" (diary or daily log) in Chinese, and it is most commonly associated with publications, historical records, and commemorative inscriptions. As part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs block, it is encoded for digital text representation across East Asian languages, ensuring consistent display and interchange.
