U+8FC8 "迈" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
迈
U+8FC8 "迈" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to step forward" or "to stride," and it can also convey the sense of "to surpass" or "to exceed," as in moving beyond a limit or advancing in age. Its simplified form is composed of the radical for "walk" or "movement" (辶) and the phonetic component "万" (wan, meaning ten thousand), suggesting the idea of taking a step over a great distance. In modern Chinese, it is commonly used in words related to pacing, such as "步伐" (bùfá, meaning "step" or "pace"), and in phrases like "迈入" (màirù, "to step into" a new phase). This character reflects the concept of progression and forward motion, both physically and metaphorically.
