U+8F5E "轞" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

轞

U+8F5E "轞" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character that primarily refers to a type of ancient prison cart or cage used for transporting prisoners, often associated with the historical term "轞车" (jiàn chē). It falls under the radical 車 (che, meaning "cart" or "vehicle") and consists of 20 strokes, with its structure combining the cart radical on the left and a phonetic component on the right derived from "監" (jiān). This character is classified within the CJK Unified Ideographs block under the Large Seal Script and Small Seal Script traditions, though it is not commonly used in modern Chinese or Japanese texts and is considered an obscure, archaic form that appears mainly in classical literature or specialized historical references.
