U+8CCA "賊" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
賊
U+8CCA "賊" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that primarily means "thief," "robber," or "traitor," and it carries connotations of harm or destruction. In its structure, it combines the radical for "shell" or "money" (貝) on the left, which often relates to wealth or property, with a phonetic component on the right, reflecting its historical use in contexts of stealing or betraying. This character is used in modern Chinese, Japanese, and Korean writing systems, though it appears more frequently in traditional Chinese texts and is sometimes simplified to "贼" in simplified Chinese. Its semantic range extends to describing something harmful or treacherous, such as in the compound word "国賊" meaning "national traitor."
