U+8D84 "趄" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
趄
U+8D84 "趄" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that primarily appears as a component in the compound character "趔趄" (liè qie), which describes a staggering or unsteady gait, often associated with stumbling or walking with difficulty. Pronounced "qie" or "ju" in Mandarin, this ideograph itself conveys the notion of a hesitant, sidestepping, or tilting movement, and it is composed of the radical "走" (zou, meaning "to walk") and the phonetic component "且" (qie or ju). In modern usage, it is not commonly used as a standalone word but remains an essential element in describing physical imbalance or awkward motion in literary or formal contexts.
