U+8DC3 "跃" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
跃
U+8DC3 "跃" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to jump," "to leap," or "to spring," conveying a sense of brisk, upward, or forward movement. It is composed of the radical 足 (zú), meaning "foot," which relates to actions performed by the feet, and the phonetic component 夭 (yāo), which hints at its pronunciation as "yuè." This character is widely used in modern Chinese to describe physical leaping, such as in the word 跳跃 (tiàoyuè) for "to jump," and also appears in metaphorical contexts like 飞跃 (fēiyuè) meaning "to leap forward" or "to soar," often implying rapid progress or breakthrough.
