U+6450 "摐" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+6450 "摐" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character primarily used in classical texts and historical contexts, where it functions as a verb meaning to beat or strike, often specifically describing the action of striking a bell or drum. Its composition includes the hand radical (扌) on the left, indicating an action performed by the hand, paired with a phonetic component on the right that contributes to its pronunciation, which is typically read as "chuāng" or "cōng" in modern Mandarin. This character appears in ancient Chinese literature, such as in poetic or historical descriptions of ritual music or battle signals, and it remains part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideograph set, though it is rarely used in contemporary everyday writing.
