U+626A "扪" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+626A "扪" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily functions as a verb meaning "to hold" or "to feel with the hand," often implying a gentle touch or a careful, cautious press, such as in the phrase "扪心自问" (to touch one's heart and ask oneself, meaning to search one's conscience). It is composed of the radical 扌 (hand) on the left, indicating its connection to manual action, and the phonetic component 门 (door) on the right, which hints at its pronunciation "mén" in Mandarin Chinese. This character is part of the standard CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideograph set, allowing it to be represented in digital text across these languages, though it is less common in daily usage compared to more frequent characters.
