U+526E "剮" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that historically refers to a brutal form of execution by dismemberment, often translated as "cutting into pieces" or "lingchi," which was used as a capital punishment in ancient China. This character is composed of the radical for "knife" or "sword" (刂) on the right, indicating cutting or severing, and a phonetic or semantic component on the left that suggests division or separation. While largely obsolete in modern everyday use, it appears in classical texts, legal history, and discussions of ancient penal practices, carrying a strong connotation of extreme violence and torture.
