U+9F84 "龄" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+9F84 "龄" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "age" or "years old," commonly used in East Asian languages such as Mandarin Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. It is composed of the radical "齿" (tooth) on the left, which relates to the original concept of counting age by the growth of teeth, and the phonetic component "令" on the right, which provides a clue to its pronunciation. In modern usage, "龄" appears frequently in words related to age groups, legal age limits, or life stages, such as "年龄" meaning age or "工龄" meaning length of service. This character is part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs block in the Unicode standard, and its representation allows for consistent digital communication across these writing systems.
