U+6439 "搹" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character used in traditional and classical texts, known by its Mandarin pronunciation "è" or "wò" in modern usage. It is composed of the radical 扌 (hand) and the phonetic component 屋 (wū), conveying a meaning related to grasping, clutching, or striking firmly with the hand, often appearing in historical or literary contexts rather than everyday conversation. Rarely used in simplified Chinese, it is primarily encountered in specialized dictionaries or ancient documents where it describes actions like seizing or wrestling something down.
