U+77E2 "矢" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
U+77E2 "矢" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a logogram from the Chinese, Japanese, and Korean writing systems that originally depicts an arrow and carries the core meanings of "arrow," "dart," or "to vow" in various East Asian languages. In its historical etymology, the character evolved from a pictograph of an arrow with a pointed tip, fletching, and shaft, and it is used both as an independent word and as a radical in other complex characters, often relating to concepts of direction, precision, or solemn promises. In modern usage, it appears in terms like the Japanese "yajirushi" for an arrow sign and in Chinese compounds signifying an oath or a sworn statement, reflecting its enduring symbolic link to the idea of a straight, unerring projectile.
