CJK Compatibility Ideograph-2F850

81/542

切 is a compatibility form of 切, kept so Taiwan's CNS 11643-1992 encoding standard can round-trip its source entry through Unicode. Normalization can erase its separate code-point identity.

Text symbol

What 切 means

It preserves a Taiwan-standard character mapping.

Taiwan's CNS 11643-1992 is a character-encoding standard. Unicode kept ideographs from its planes 3–7 and 15 for round-trip conversion; this entry's source label is T3-217C.

Can normalization change 切?

Yes; normalization can fold it into 切.

Normalization rewrites canonically equivalent forms into a standard text form.

Unicode's standardized sequence 切︁ adds an invisible UFE01 variation selector after 切; software whose fonts support it can display the designated variant.

Questions people ask

Why does 切 show as a box on some devices?

Not every system ships a font for the CJK Compatibility Ideographs Supplement block. Where none is installed, the character shows as an empty box; adding a font such as Noto fixes it. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.

Why is 切 a box on my screen?

fsymbols draws rare signs with its own fonts, so they show here even where your device has none. An app or website without such a font shows an empty box (□) or a question mark instead. Turn our fonts off to see each sign as your device draws it by itself: a box here means a box in your chats and documents too.
