U+62CB "拋" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

拋

U+62CB "拋" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to throw," "to cast," or "to abandon," and it is composed of the radical "扌" (hand) and the phonetic component "力" or often analyzed with "九" and "力," reflecting its action-oriented nature of launching something away. In modern usage, it appears in words like "拋棄" (pāoqì) meaning to discard or forsake, and "拋物線" (pāowùxiàn) meaning parabola, highlighting its connection to physical projection or metaphorical rejection. Historically, this character has been employed in classical Chinese texts to describe the act of hurling objects or casting aside possessions, and it retains those core meanings across various East Asian languages that use Chinese characters, such as Japanese and Korean.
