轿
U+8F7F "轿" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "sedan chair" or "palanquin," a traditional covered vehicle carried by poles, historically used for transporting wealthy or important individuals. It is composed of the radical 车 (che), meaning "vehicle," and the phonetic component 乔 (qiao), which contributes to its pronunciation. In modern Chinese, "轿" is most commonly used in the word 轿车 (jiaoche), which refers to a car or sedan automobile, reflecting a semantic shift from the old-fashioned litter to a contemporary motor vehicle.
