U+9082 "邂" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

邂

U+9082 "邂" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to meet" or "to encounter," often used in classical and literary contexts to describe an unexpected or chance meeting. It appears as a component in the common Chinese word "邂逅" (xièhòu), which specifically denotes a serendipitous or romantic encounter. The character is composed of the radical for "walk" or "movement" on the left side, suggesting motion, and the phonetic component on the right, which influences its pronunciation. As part of the CJK Unified Ideographs block, "邂" is used in both traditional and simplified Chinese scripts, though it is more frequently encountered in formal writing, poetry, or historical texts than in everyday conversation. Its usage carries a nuanced, almost poetic sense of fate and timing, making it a distinctive character within the vast repertoire of Chinese logograms.
