U+9AC3 "髃" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
髃
U+9AC3 "髃" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that appears in the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) Unified Ideographs block. Its pronunciation and meaning are somewhat obscure, but it is traditionally defined as referring to the shoulder blade or the upper arm bone, specifically the acromion process where the clavicle meets the scapula. In classical texts and medical contexts, it may denote a bony prominence or joint area associated with the shoulder, though it is not a commonly used character in modern standard Mandarin or Japanese. The character is composed of the radical for bone (骨) and a phonetic component, illustrating the typical structure of many CJK ideographs where meaning and sound are combined.
