U+8FA4 "辤" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

辤

U+8FA4 "辤" CJK Unified Ideograph- is a Chinese character (hanzi) that primarily means "to decline" or "to refuse," and it is closely related to the concept of taking leave or resigning from a position. This character is composed of the radical 辛 (meaning "bitter" or "toilsome") combined with other components, and it is an ancient or variant form of the more common character 辭 (cí), which shares similar meanings of speech, diction, or formal resignation. In classical Chinese texts, "辤" often appears in contexts involving polite refusal, farewells, or the act of quitting an official post, and it is rarely used in modern simplified Chinese, where 辞 has become the standard form. Its usage highlights the rich historical evolution of Chinese writing, where variant characters like 辤 preserve older orthographic traditions.
