U+8FEA "迪" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+8FEA "迪" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that primarily means "to enlighten," "to follow," or "a path," and is commonly used in modern Mandarin as a phonetic component in transliterations, most notably in the word "迪斯科" (dísīkē, meaning "disco"). It carries the radical "辶" (walk radical), indicating motion or a journey, and in historical context, it can imply moral guidance or progress. This character appears in various compound words and names, such as "启迪" (qǐ dí, meaning "to enlighten" or "inspire"), and is widely recognized in East Asian writing systems, as it is also used in Japanese and Korean contexts where it retains similar meanings. Its structure combines the phonetic "由" (yóu) with the semantic walk radical, reflecting its dual role of conveying both a literal and figurative sense of direction.
