U+8B70 "議" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
U+8B70 "議" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character used in written Chinese, Japanese Kanji, and occasionally Korean Hanja, meaning "discussion," "deliberation," or "council." It is composed of the radical "言" (speech, words) on the left and a phonetic component "義" (righteousness, meaning) on the right, combining to convey the idea of verbal exchange or formal debate over matters of principle. In modern usage, it appears in words such as "會議" (meeting, conference) and "議題" (agenda, topic for discussion), and is distinguished from its simplified variant "议", which is more common in mainland China. This character belongs to the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) Unified Ideographs block in the Unicode standard, encoding a shared East Asian script system.
