Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+522E "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means to scrape, shave, or blow (as in wind). It is composed of the knife radical 刂 on the right, indicating an action involving a blade, and the phonetic component 舌 on the left, which contributes to its pronunciation in Mandarin as "gua". This character is commonly used in words related to removing a surface layer, such as 刮胡子 (to shave a beard) or 刮风 (the wind blows), and appears frequently in both modern and classical Chinese texts as a practical and descriptive logogram.
