U+6327 "挧" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+6327 "挧" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare East Asian character used primarily in Japanese contexts, where it is known as a kokuji, or a Chinese character invented in Japan. It combines the hand radical (扌) on the left with the character for feather (羽) on the right, and its meanings are associated with cartography and foliage, specifically referring to a type of tree or branch used as a boundary marker, as well as the act of putting up feathers or branches to signify a territory. In modern usage, it appears almost exclusively in place names and family names in Japan, making it an obscure but culturally specific glyph.
