U+81EA "自" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+81EA "自" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a foundational Chinese character that primarily means "self," "oneself," or "from," and it is deeply embedded in East Asian languages including Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. Visually, the character resembles an eye with a prominent upward stroke, a form that ancient oracle bone script derived from depicting a nose, as people would point to their nose to indicate "self." This character appears in essential vocabulary such as "自己" meaning "one's own self" and "自由" meaning "freedom" or literally "from oneself," and it also functions as a radical in many other complex characters.
