Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+5315 "匕" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that originally depicted an ancient spoon or ladle, and its core meaning refers to a spoon or a dagger, particularly a short dagger or an ancient weapon. In modern usage, it appears as a component in other characters, often carrying the semantic sense of a tool, a container, or a ritual implement. The character is also part of the Japanese kanji system, where it is pronounced "hichi" or "saji" and retains similar meanings, including its use in the word "匕 首" (hishu) meaning dagger. Despite its simple form, "匕" holds historical significance in oracle bone script and bronze inscriptions, where it was used to represent both the utensil and the act of stabbing or scooping.
