U+63C8 "揈" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+63C8 "揈" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) used primarily in classical and modern written Chinese, though it is relatively uncommon in everyday usage. Its pronunciation is typically "hōng" in Mandarin, and its core meaning relates to the action of striking, hitting, or pounding, often with a tool or the hand. The character is composed of the radical 扌 (hand) on the left, indicating an activity performed by hand, and the phonetic component 冋 on the right. In historical texts, it may appear in contexts describing physical impact or military actions, but it is not among the frequently encountered characters in standard contemporary vocabulary.
