U+8005 "者" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+8005 "者" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a fundamental and highly versatile Chinese character used in classical and modern Mandarin, Japanese Kanji, and Korean Hanja. It predominantly functions as a nominalizing suffix or pronoun, often meaning "person," "one who does something," or "that which," as seen in words like "工作者" (worker) or "读者" (reader). Its structure consists of the radical for "old" or "venerable" at the top, beneath which the radical for "sun" or "day" appears, though its phonetic role is more prominent in forming compound characters. In historical contexts, "者" also appears in classical Chinese as a topic marker, helping to define or emphasize the subject of a sentence.
