U+9AB4 "骴" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
骴
U+9AB4 "骴" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that historically conveys meanings associated with decomposed or rotting bones, often specifically referring to skeleton remnants or a corpse that is badly decayed. In modern usage, it remains a rare or literary character rather than a common part of everyday vocabulary, appearing primarily in classical texts or specialized contexts related to death and decay. Its structure combines the radical for bone with other components that together emphasize the idea of physical deterioration, making it a semantically grim but linguistically interesting example of how ancient Chinese writing encoded specific, visceral concepts.
