Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+5275 "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character traditionally meaning "to create," "to establish," or "to initiate," and it also carries the secondary meaning of "wound" or "injury" in certain contexts, reflecting its dual semantic roots in ancient Chinese. This character is composed of the radical 刂 (knife) on the right, suggesting cutting or action, and the component 倉 on the left, which provides phonetic value and also hints at a granary or storage, linking to the idea of founding or building. Found across Chinese, Japanese, and Korean writing systems, it is used in terms like 創造 (creation) in modern usage, while in medical or literary contexts it can denote trauma or a scar. The character's complex history and varied applications make it a notable example of how a single CJK glyph can encapsulate both constructive and destructive notions.
