Character Story & Explanation
悊 (zhé) is a rare character meaning 'to revere' or 'to respect deeply.' It combines the radical 折 (zhé, 'to break') and 心 (xīn, 'heart'), suggesting a heart that breaks in awe. Not commonly used in modern Chinese, it appears in classical texts to express profound reverence for wisdom or virtue.
