Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+2F9C "⾜" Kangxi Radical Foot is one of the 214 traditional Kangxi radicals and corresponds to the concept of "foot" or "leg" in Chinese writing. Historically derived from pictographic origins showing a human foot or leg, this radical is used as a semantic component in numerous characters related to actions involving the feet, such as walking, kicking, or stepping. In modern Unicode, it is encoded in the Kangxi Radicals block primarily as an indexical symbol for dictionaries and character reference systems, distinct from the similarly shaped standard CJK character "足" which is more commonly used in actual text. This radical serves as a key structural element in understanding Chinese character composition and categorization.
