Source: Browser Default
U+8B80 "讀" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that primarily means "to read" or "to study," and it also conveys the act of reading aloud, reciting, or perusing text. This character is composed of the radical 言 (speech) on the left, indicating its connection to language or oral communication, and the phonetic component 賣 (sell) on the right, which contributes to its pronunciation in Mandarin as "dú." Widely used in both classical and modern Chinese, Japanese, and Korean writing systems, "讀" appears in words like 讀書 (dúshū, to read a book) and 閱讀 (yuèdú, reading), reflecting its fundamental role in literacy and learning across East Asian cultures.
