U+6331 "挱" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
挱
U+6331 "挱" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) primarily used in classical or literary contexts, where it carries the meaning of "to rub" or "to stroke," often associated with the action of lightly touching or smoothing something with the hand. It is composed of the radical 扌 (hand) on the left, indicating manual action, and the phonetic component 沙 (shā) on the right, which suggests its pronunciation in Mandarin as "shā" or "suō," depending on usage. Though not common in modern everyday Chinese, it can appear in historical texts or compound words related to gestures of wiping, caressing, or handling delicate surfaces, reflecting the nuanced physical motions of the hand.
