U+2E9F "" CJK Radical Mother is a typographic symbol used as a radical in traditional Chinese character dictionaries, representing the concept of mother. It is derived from the more complex character 母 (mǔ), meaning "mother," and appears in the Kangxi radical system as the 80th radical. This radical is often found in characters related to female family roles, nourishment, or growth, and it forms a component in characters such as 每 (měi, "each") and 毒 (dú, "poison"), where it conveys semantic hints about origin or nurturing. As a printed form, it retains the distinctive shape of the original character but is simplified for use as a classifier in compound ideographs.
