U+82DF "苟" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+82DF "苟" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily carries the meaning of "if" or "supposing" in classical and modern contexts, though it can also denote "careless" or "improper" when used in compounds like "苟且" (careless or perfunctory). Originating as a pictophonetic compound, its radical is the grass radical (艹), suggesting a plant-related etymology, while its phonetic component contributes to its pronunciation. This character appears in classical texts, such as in Confucian philosophy, where it often expresses conditional reasoning or ethical warnings against sloppiness, and it remains in use today in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean writing systems within the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideograph block.
