U+6338 "挸" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+6338 "挸" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character from the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) set that traditionally means to wipe or to clean, often associated with the action of wiping away dirt or sweat. In modern usage, it may be less common but retains a historical presence in classical texts and regional dialects. The character combines the hand radical (扌) on the left, which suggests an action performed with the hand, with a phonetic component on the right that hints at its pronunciation, exemplifying the typical structure of many Chinese logographs.
