U+62D7 "拗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
拗
U+62D7 "拗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily conveys the meanings of "stubborn," "obstinate," or "to bend" or "break" something, often by force. It is composed of the hand radical 扌 on the left, indicating an action, and the phonetic component 幼 (meaning young or small) on the right. In Mandarin, it is pronounced as ǎo when referring to the act of bending or twisting, and as ào when describing a person's unyielding or contrary nature, such as in the common word 执拗 (zhí'ào), meaning willful or dogmatic. This character appears in classical texts and modern usage, often to depict both physical tension and inflexible character traits.
