U+80AF "肯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (pronounced kěn in Mandarin) that primarily means "to agree," "to consent," or "to be willing," often used in expressions like 肯定 (kěndìng, meaning "certainly" or "affirmative"). It derives from a combination of the radical 肉 (meat/flesh) and a phonetic component, and in classical contexts it also referred to the skeletal structure, specifically the area where bone and flesh connect, giving rise to the idiom 中肯 (zhòngkěn, meaning "to hit the mark" or "to be pertinent"). In modern usage, it is a common character in both formal and informal Chinese writing, frequently appearing in everyday language to denote agreement or affirmation.
