U+6397 "掗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+6397 "掗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare or obsolete Chinese character that traditionally means to take, take by force, or to seize, also carrying a secondary meaning of to push or lean on in some historical usages. It is composed of the radical 扌 (hand) on the left, indicating an action involving the hand, and the phonetic component 咼 (guō) on the right. While not commonly used in modern standard Chinese, it appears in classical texts and specialized dictionaries as a variant or less common form of the character 捩 (liè, meaning to twist) or related to 搲 (wā, meaning to scoop or grasp). The character is primarily of historical interest and is rarely encountered outside of academic or antiquarian contexts.
