U+4F38 "伸" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
伸
U+4F38 "伸" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character commonly used in East Asian languages such as Mandarin, Japanese, and Korean, where it primarily conveys the meanings of "stretch," "extend," or "expand." In Japanese, it appears in terms like "伸ばす" (nobasu) meaning to stretch or lengthen, and in Chinese, it is part of compounds like "伸長" (shēncháng) for elongation or "伸手" (shēnshǒu) for reaching out a hand. The character consists of the radical "亻" (person) on the left, indicating a human action, and the phonetic component "申" on the right, which suggests its pronunciation and contributes to its semantic nuance of gradual extension or manifestation.
