Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+8715 "蜕" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means to slough off, exuviate, or shed, such as when a snake sheds its skin or a cicada sheds its shell, and it carries extended figurative meanings of transformation, escape, or release from a prior state. This character is composed of the radical 虫 (insect or creature) and the phonetic component 兑 (duì), reflecting its etymological association with the physical process of molting in arthropods and reptiles. In modern Chinese, it appears in words like 蜕变 (tuìbiàn), meaning a fundamental change or metamorphosis, and 蜕化 (tuìhuà), referring to degeneration or moral decay, making it a versatile ideograph for describing both biological and abstract transitions.
