U+636C "捬" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+636C "捬" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character primarily used in classical or heritage texts, with its most common meaning relating to the action of pressing down or patting, often seen in compound terms like "捬掌" meaning to clap one's hands. It can also carry a secondary sense of relying on or supporting, though this usage is less frequent. The character belongs to the radical "扌" (hand) and is written with a total of 11 strokes, originating from older forms of sinographic writing but rarely appearing in modern everyday Chinese. Instead, it survives in historical literature, specialized dictionaries, or as a variant form of characters like "撫".
