Source: Browser Default
U+91CB "釋" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that primarily conveys the meanings of "to release," "to explain," or "to set free." It is composed of the radical 采 (which relates to distinguishing or separating) and the phonetic component 睪, and it appears in classical texts such as the Analects of Confucius, where it can denote the act of untying or unfastening. In Buddhism, this character is notably used to represent "Shakyamuni" (the historical Buddha) as part of his name, 釋迦牟尼, and it also appears in modern contexts related to legal or formal terms like "釋放" meaning "release" or "釋義" meaning "exegesis."
