U+8F9C "辜" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
辜
U+8F9C "辜" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "crime," "guilt," or "to wrong someone," often used in the context of injustice or blame. It is composed of the radical 辛 (spicy or bitter, associated with punishment or labor) and the phonetic component 古 (old), which together convey the notion of an ancient or established transgression. This ideograph appears in common vocabulary such as 无辜 (wugoo, meaning innocent or without guilt) and 辜负 (gufu, meaning to let someone down or betray a trust), making it semantically significant for expressing moral or legal culpability in both classical and modern Chinese writing.
