U+623D "戽" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
戽
U+623D "戽" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character traditionally meaning a ladle or a bailing bucket, particularly one used for scooping water, such as in irrigation or on boats. Its structure combines the radical "户" (door or household) with "斗" (a dipper or measure for grain or liquid), reflecting its functional association with water handling and measurement. In East Asian contexts, this character is occasionally used in agricultural terminology or historical texts describing manual water-raising tools, though it is less common in modern everyday language.
