U+648E "撎" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+648E "撎" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a relatively rare Chinese character that primarily appears in classical or historical texts rather than modern standard usage. Its meaning and usage have narrowed over time, and in some traditional sources, it is associated with the concept of bowing or performing a ritualized greeting, specifically a deep bow in ancient Chinese etiquette. In modern Chinese, this character is largely obsolete, having been replaced by more common characters for similar meanings, and it is not part of the standard vocabulary used in contemporary writing or speech. Its encoding in Unicode ensures that historical and scholarly documents containing this character can still be preserved and digitally represented.
