U+96B7 "隷" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
隷
U+96B7 "隷" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese and Japanese kanji character that primarily conveys the meaning of "servant," "slave," "to be subordinate to," or "attached to." It is historically associated with the concept of belonging or being in service to a master, and it often appears in classical texts, legal documents, and compound words related to social hierarchy or subjugation. In modern usage, it is also a component of the Japanese word for "cursive script" or "clerical script" in calligraphy, where it denotes a specific style of brush strokes. The character is composed of radical 171 "隶" meaning "slave" or "to reach," combined with other elements that reinforce its connotation of subordination and connection.
