U+8EAB "身" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
身
U+8EAB "身" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a fundamental Chinese character representing the concept of "body," "person," or "self." It is composed of the radical for "body" and is widely used in East Asian languages, including Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, to form words related to physical form, personal identity, or one's own life, such as in terms for "health," "height," or "oneself." Its structure, with a curved stroke suggesting a torso, reflects its pictographic origins, originally depicting a human body in profile, and it carries deep cultural and linguistic significance across the region's writing systems.
