U+9AB8 "骸" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+9AB8 "骸" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "skeleton," "corpse," or "body," specifically referring to the bones of a deceased person or the physical remains after death. In classical and modern Chinese, Japanese, and Korean usage, it often appears in compounds related to mortality, such as "骸骨" (háigǔ) meaning "skeleton" or "human bones," and can also be used metaphorically to describe something abandoned or left behind. This character is composed of the radical for bone (骨) on the left and the phonetic component 亥 on the right, reflecting its semantic and phonetic structure within the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) unified ideograph system. Its inclusion in the Unicode Standard allows for consistent digital representation across languages, supporting texts in fields like paleontology, forensic science, and literature.
