U+62BC "押" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

押

U+62BC "押" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that fundamentally means to press, push down, or detain, often implying an action that applies force or holds something in place. In modern usage, it appears in words like 押金, meaning a deposit or security money, and 押送, meaning to escort under guard, reflecting its connotations of pledge and confinement. Its structure combines the hand radical 扌 on the left with the phonetic component 甲 on the right, which contributed to its historical pronunciation and meaning related to pressing or sealing. This character is also used in broader East Asian contexts, such as in Japanese where it denotes pressing or betting, and in Korean as a component in legal or administrative terms involving custody.
