关

U+5173 "关" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to close," "to shut," "to turn off," or "a pass" or "barrier," and it is a simplified form of the traditional character 關. It is widely used in modern Mandarin Chinese, appearing in common words like 关系 (guānxì, meaning "relationship") and 关门 (guānmén, meaning "to close the door"), and it plays a key role in expressing concepts of connection, obstruction, or frontier. Its stroke count is six, and it belongs to the radical 丷 (or sometimes categorized under 八) in the Kangxi system, with its structure being a top-down enclosure. In Unicode, it is encoded under the CJK Unified Ideographs block, representing a logogram shared across Chinese, Japanese, and Korean writing systems, though its usage and pronunciation vary by language.
