What 訳 means
訳 is the cjk unified ideograph-8a33. Unicode classifies it as a letter and files it in the CJK Unified Ideographs block; this site shelves it under Chinese, Japanese & Korean.
Its appearance depends on the font and text styling.
How it is encoded
訳 is a single code point, U8A33. In HTML that is 訳, and in CSS \8A33.
Japan standardized 訳 in the 1946 reform; 譯 remains the traditional Chinese form.
In Japanese, use 訳; 译 is the simplified Chinese form.
