U+63BC "掼" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+63BC "掼" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means to throw, toss, or fling something with force, often carrying a rough or reckless connotation in its action. It is also used in certain regional dialects to denote slamming or hurling an object, and it appears in compound terms like "掼交" meaning to throw someone down in a fight or wrestling. The character is composed of the hand radical 扌 and the phonetic component 贯 (guàn), which gives a clue to its pronunciation and contributes to the sense of passing through or connecting, though the hand radical specifies the manual action. In modern usage, "掼" is encountered in both formal and colloquial contexts, particularly in northern Chinese dialects, and it is also a component in the name of the popular card game "掼蛋" (guàndàn).
