Source: Browser Default
U+8098 "肘" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that represents the human elbow, often used in anatomical and medical contexts in East Asian languages such as Chinese and Japanese. In Chinese, it is pronounced "zhǒu" and appears in compound words like "肘部" meaning elbow region or "手肘" meaning the elbow joint. This character is constructed from the radical "月" (meat or flesh) on the left, indicating its bodily association, and the phonetic component "寸" on the right, which contributes to its sound. Historically, it has been used in classical texts to describe physical actions such as elbowing or leaning on one's elbow.
