U+8AC9 "諉" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+8AC9 "諉" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that generally means to shift responsibility or to pass the blame onto someone else, often used in the context of evasion or shirking duty. In modern Chinese, it appears in words such as "推諉" (tuī wěi), which means to make excuses or to shirk responsibility. Historically, the character is composed of the radical 言 (speech) on the left, suggesting an action involving words, and the phonetic component 委 on the right, which contributes the pronunciation and also carries connotations of delegation or burden.
