Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+2F91 "" Kangxi Radical West is a graphical representation of one of the 214 traditional Kangxi radicals, specifically the radical meaning "west" or "westward." This radical, derived from the ancient Chinese character for "west," is often used in Chinese-character-based scripts as a component in more complex characters, where it typically conveys the concept of direction or, by extension, ideas related to the setting sun and the western direction. In Unicode, this character belongs to the Kangxi Radicals block, serving as a standardized graphic for dictionary indexing and historical text analysis, distinct from the CJK unified ideograph for "west" (U+897F).
