In the character角 in traditional Chinese, as well as in Japanese, Korean and Vietnamese, the central vertical stroke does not extend below the last horizontal line, the one formed by the seventh, last stroke. This creates an appearance roughly equivalent to土 enclosed in the top part of冂.
However, in simplified Chinese, the central vertical stroke in角 extends to the bottom of the character (as in用). This difference applies to all simplified Chinesecharacters containing thisradical.
Note that the Chinese and Japanese stroke order is slightly different for the fifth and sixth strokes, as illustrated in the animations above.

Pictogram (象形) – a horn. A conservative version is𧢲. Similar but unrelated to甬,用, and the bottom part of備.
FromProto-Sino-Tibetan*krəw(“horn; angle; corner”) (STEDT). Cognate withTibetanརྭ(rwa,“horn”),Garogrong(“horn”),Jingphonrung(“horn”),Chepangरोङः(roŋʔ,“horn”),觡 (OC*kraːɡ, “antler”). The Tibeto-Burman*-ŋ final variant is reflected in觥 (OC*kʷraːŋ, “drinking vessel made from animal horn”) (Schuessler, 2007). Possibly also related to鹿 (OC*b·roːɡ, “deer”) (Sagart, 1999).
A derivative is餃 (“stuffed dumpling”), named for its horn-like shape (Norman, 1988).
It is probably unrelated withProto-Indo-European*ḱr̥h₂nós(“horn”) ( <*ḱerh₂-(“horn”)) andProto-Semitic*ḳarn-(“horn”) despite the phonological and semantic resemblance between the three.
