U+5F13 "弓" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
弓
U+5F13 "弓" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a logogram representing the concept of a bow, as in the weapon used for shooting arrows, and is part of the set of standard Chinese characters (Hanzi) in the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) unified script. Its stroke order consists of three strokes, and it serves as a radical in other characters, often conveying meanings related to bending, tension, or archery. In modern usage, it retains its literal sense in words like gōngjiàn (bow and arrow) and appears in characters such as 張 (zhāng, to stretch) and 強 (qiáng, strong), which metaphorically extend the idea of drawing a bowstring.
