U+64A2 "撢" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

撢

U+64A2 "撢" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character primarily used in both Classical and modern Chinese, where it functions as a verb meaning to dust, brush, or lightly strike, often with the connotation of removing dust from a surface or probing gently. It is composed of the hand radical (扌) on the left, indicating action, and the phonetic component (覃) on the right, which contributes to its pronunciation and meaning. In some extended usages, it can also imply sounding out or exploring cautiously, as in "to tap" something to test its resonance or depth. The character appears infrequently in everyday writing but is recognized in literary contexts and historical texts, and it is encoded in the Unicode standard to support the digital representation of East Asian languages.
