U+8EED "軭" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
軭
U+8EED "軭" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character found in historical and classical texts, primarily appearing in the Kangxi Dictionary and other traditional lexicons. It is composed of the radical 車 (che, meaning "cart" or "vehicle") on the left and the phonetic component 匡 (kuang) on the right, and its meaning is associated with the idea of distorting or bending a wheel or axle, often interpreted as "to warp" or "to make crooked." This character does not commonly appear in modern Chinese or Japanese usage and is considered obscure, serving mostly as a subject of scholarly interest in the study of ancient character forms and phonetics.
