U+6379 "捹" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

捹

U+6379 "捹" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that is primarily used in Cantonese to denote the action of shaking or moving something vigorously, often with an implication of agitation or scattering, such as shaking a bottle to mix its contents or jostling an object to dislodge it. It is composed of the hand radical (扌) on the left, indicating a manual action, and a phonetic component on the right, although the character is considered rare or obscure in modern standard Mandarin usage. Its pronunciation in Cantonese is roughly "ban3," and it appears in some regional dictionaries and colloquial contexts rather than in formal literary works.
