U+8EC0 "軀" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+8EC0 "軀" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that primarily means "body" or "torso," often referring to the physical form of a person or animal. It is composed of the radical "身" (body) on the left side, which provides semantic clues about its meaning, and the phonetic component "區" on the right, which influences its pronunciation as "qū" in Mandarin Chinese. This character appears in various East Asian scripts, including Chinese, Japanese (where it is known as "karada" in kun'yomi readings), and Korean Hanja, and it is used in contexts ranging from classical literature to modern expressions related to the human physique, such as in compound words like "軀體" (physical body) or "身軀" (figure or stature). Its encoding in Unicode ensures consistent representation across digital platforms for historical, linguistic, and cultural documentation.
