U+8E8C "躌" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
躌
U+8E8C "躌" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character that combines the radical for "foot" (足) with a phonetic component, and it broadly conveys the meaning of stepping or treading, often with an implication of stopping or hesitating in one's movements. This character appears in classical or literary Chinese texts rather than in modern everyday language, and its structure reflects the traditional logographic system where semantic and phonetic elements merge to represent a specific concept. In Unicode's unified CJK block, it is encoded alongside thousands of other ideographs from Chinese, Japanese, and Korean contexts, preserving historical usage even for characters that are now largely obsolete.
