U+8DC4 "跄" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+8DC4 "跄" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (simplified form of 蹌) that primarily means to stumble, trip, or walk unsteadily, often conveying a sense of faltering movement or a hasty, clumsy gait. It is composed of the radical 足 (foot) for leg-related actions and the phonetic component 仓 (cāng), which hints at its pronunciation as qiàng in Mandarin (with a secondary reading qiāng). This character appears in words like 踉跄 (liàngqiàng), meaning to stagger or reel, and is also used in classical literature to describe hurried or awkward steps.
