U+91C8 "釈" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+91C8 "釈" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily carries the meanings of "interpretation," "explanation," or "release," and is a simplified form of the traditional character "釋." This character is most commonly used in Japanese, where it is a standard Jōyō kanji and appears in compounds such as 解釈 (kaishaku, meaning "interpretation") and 釈放 (shakuhō, meaning "release"). Historically, the character's composition includes elements related to a field of grain and a radical associated with a net or separation, reflecting its original semantic connections to loosening or freeing something. In the Global CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) unified ideograph system, it is encoded for consistent representation across digital platforms dealing with these languages.
