U+96BB "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+96BB "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that primarily functions as a measure word for one of a pair, such as a shoe, glove, or wing, and also means "single" or "alone" in compound words like "只有" (only) or "一隻狗" (one dog). It is composed of the radical "隹" (short-tailed bird) and the semantic component "又" (hand), suggesting the ancient idea of holding a single bird in the hand. While simplified Chinese merges its usage with the character "只" (U+53EA), which covers the meaning of "only" and "measure word," "隻" remains widely used in Traditional Chinese, Japanese (as "seki" or "tada"), and Korean (as "cheok") for indicating singularity or individual items, particularly in formal or classical contexts.
