U+643A "携" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

携

U+643A "携" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a logogram used in the Chinese, Japanese, and Korean (CJK) writing systems, where it primarily conveys the meaning of "to carry," "to hold," or "to take along," often implying mutual action or accompaniment, as seen in words like "攜帶" (to carry) in Traditional Chinese or "携帯" (mobile phone) in Japanese. Structurally, this character combines the radical for "hand" (扌) with the phonetic component "巂," reflecting its etymological connection to manual action. In addition to its literal sense, it appears in figurative contexts such as "cooperation" or "collaboration," exemplified by terms like "携手" (hand in hand) in Chinese. Encoded in the Unicode Standard since version 1.0.1, it occupies the plane of common CJK characters and is widely used across East Asian languages in both formal and everyday writing.
