U+8C61 "象" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+8C61 "象" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "elephant" and is also used to denote "shape," "form," "appearance," or "phenomenon." It originates from ancient pictographic writing, where the character evolved from a visual representation of an elephant, and it holds cultural significance in East Asian languages including Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. In addition to its zoological reference, "象" appears in important concepts such as "xiàngqí" (Chinese chess), "xiàngzhēng" (symbol), and "yìnxiàng" (impression), and it serves as a radical in other characters. This character is part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) Unified Ideographs block in the Unicode standard, which facilitates digital representation across multiple languages without duplication.
