Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+5220 "删" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character traditionally meaning "to delete," "to cut out," or "to excise," and it is composed of the radical for "knife" or "sword" on the right side, which suggests the action of cutting away or removing something. This character is commonly used in modern digital contexts to represent the "delete" function on keyboards or in software interfaces, as well as in written Chinese for editing text or eliminating superfluous content. Its structure reflects the literal idea of slicing off unwanted parts, and it is an essential part of the CJK unified ideographs block, encoding a shared character used in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean writing systems.
