U+6369 "捩" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+6369 "捩" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily carries the meaning of "to twist" or "to wrench," often referring to the act of turning or twisting something out of place, such as twisting a joint or a pipe. It is composed of the radical 扌 (hand) on the left, indicating a manual action, and the phonetic component 戾 on the right, which also contributes a sense of violence or deviation. In classical and modern Chinese usage, it appears in words like 捩手 (to wrench one's hand) or 捩转 (to twist around), and it is sometimes used in technical contexts, such as describing a twisting motion in mechanics or martial arts. The character is relatively rare in everyday writing but retains a specific and vivid descriptive power in expressing forceful rotational movements.
