U+8141 "腁" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+8141 "腁" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character used in classical or historical texts, rather than in modern standard Mandarin. It is composed of the radical for flesh or meat (月) on the left and the phonetic component 幷 on the right, and its primary meaning relates to calluses or thickened skin on the hands and feet, often resulting from manual labor. This character appears in ancient literary works, such as the phrase "腁胝" (pián zhī), which describes the rough, hardened skin formed from repetitive physical work. Due to its specialized and archaic nature, "腁" is not commonly encountered in everyday writing or speech, making it a subject of interest primarily for scholars of classical Chinese philology.
