U+6B81 "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+6B81 "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (Hanzi) that primarily means "to die" or "to pass away," often carrying a connotation of a natural or peaceful death, and is used in classical and modern Chinese literature as well as in Japanese (where it is read as "batsu" or "motsu"). It belongs to the radical "歹" (meaning "death" or "bad") and typically appears in formal or written contexts, such as in phrases referencing the death of a person or the end of a life. The character is distinct from related characters like "死" (sǐ, "death") by its slightly more literary or euphemistic tone, and it is encoded in the Unicode Standard as part of the CJK Unified Ideographs block, supporting its use across East Asian scripts for consistent digital representation.
