U+6444 "摄" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+6444 "摄" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese logograph that primarily functions as a verb meaning "to take," "to photograph," "to absorb," or "to administer," and is commonly used in modern Mandarin, Japanese, and Korean scripts. In Japanese, it appears in terms like "satsuei" (meaning photography), while in Chinese, it forms part of compounds such as "shèyǐng" (photography) and "shèshì" (camera), and also conveys the idea of capturing or gathering, as in "shèqǔ" (to absorb nutrients). Historically derived from the character components representing "hand" and "grain," its structure suggests the act of collecting or taking hold of something, and it is classified under the Kangxi radical 64 (手, hand) in traditional lexicography. Its use is widespread across East Asian writing systems due to the shared influence of Chinese characters.
