U+6487 "撇" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
撇
U+6487 "撇" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character primarily meaning to cast aside, discard, or skimm, as in removing something from a surface, and it also functions as a noun referring to a left-falling brushstroke in calligraphy or a phonetic component in certain compound characters. This ideograph is part of the Kangxi radical 64 (手 or 扌, meaning hand), and its structure combines the hand radical with 敝 (meaning worn-out or ruined), visually suggesting an action of pushing or rejecting something by hand. In modern usage, it appears in common words like 撇开 (to set aside) and peculiar or idiomatic phrases, and it requires careful distinction from similar characters due to its specific stroke order and semantic context.
