U+63B1 "掱" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
掱
U+63B1 "掱" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that is a compound ideograph depicting the concept of a "pickpocket" or "thief." The character is formed by repeating the radical for "hand" (扌) three times, visually representing the idea of multiple hands working stealthily, which aligns with its colloquial meaning in Chinese where it is used to describe someone who steals by nimble handiwork, often in crowded places. Historically, this character is less common in modern standard Chinese but appears in classical texts and dialectal usage, emphasizing its specialized and vivid semantic composition.
