U+8D91 "趑" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
趑
U+8D91 "趑" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily conveys the meaning of walking with difficulty or hesitating to advance, often used in literary contexts to describe a hesitant or faltering gait. Its structure combines the radical "走" (walk) with the phonetic component "次" (next or order), reflecting its semantic focus on movement and its phonetic derivation. In classical texts, it frequently appears in the reduplicated form "趑趄" to depict a state of reluctance or stumbling forward, and it is considered a rare or historical character in modern Chinese usage.
