Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+8E91 "躑" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that primarily means "to hesitate" or "to pace back and forth" and is often used in classical literature to describe a state of indecision or restless movement. It is a compound ideogram combining the radical for "foot" (足) with a phonetic component, and its pronunciation in Mandarin is zhí. This character appears in historical texts and poetry, such as in the works of Tang dynasty poets, to vividly depict a person halting or lingering in place, frequently due to emotional turmoil or uncertainty. In modern usage, it is less common but remains a recognized part of the Chinese writing system, especially in literary or formal contexts.
