U+8C1B "谛" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+8C1B "谛" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily conveys the meanings of "truth," "reality," or "to examine closely," and holds particular significance in Buddhist contexts where it is used to denote ultimate truth or the concept of "truth" as in the Four Noble Truths (sì shèng dì). In modern Chinese and Japanese usage, it appears in formal or literary language to express the idea of understanding something deeply or discerning the true nature of a matter. The character is composed of the radical for "words" or "speech" (讠) on the left, indicating communication, and the phonetic component "帝" on the right, which contributes to its pronunciation as "dì" in Mandarin. As part of the CJK Unified Ideographs block, it is encoded for cross-linguistic use across Chinese, Japanese, and Korean scripts, with its standardized form derived from traditional Chinese calligraphy.
