U+8E58 "蹘" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
蹘
U+8E58 "蹘" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character composed of the radical for "foot" (足) and a phonetic component, with its traditional meanings often associated with swift movement, treading, or the action of walking and running in an agile or hurried manner. In classical texts, it appears sporadically in literary or historical contexts, though it is not commonly encountered in modern standard Chinese writing, having largely fallen out of everyday use. The character reflects the complexity and depth of the CJK Unified Ideographs block, which aims to encode characters from Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and other East Asian languages under a unified standard to ensure cross-platform consistency.
