打

U+6253 "打" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to strike," "to hit," or "to beat," and it is one of the most versatile and commonly used characters in the Chinese language. Beyond its literal meaning of physical impact, the character "打" functions as a multi-purpose verb in countless compound words and expressions, such as "打电话" (to make a phone call), "打球" (to play ball), or "打车" (to take a taxi), where it often indicates the performance of an action or handling of something. Its radical is the hand radical 扌 (a variation of 手), reflecting its original connection to manual actions, and it is read as "dǎ" in Mandarin Chinese. This character appears in the CJK Unified Ideographs block of the Unicode standard, serving as a fundamental building block for written Chinese and Japanese kanji.
