U+64AA "撪" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
撪
U+64AA "撪" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character composed of a hand or action radical on the left and a phonetic component on the right. Its pronunciation in Mandarin is approximately "bēn" or "pēn," and it traditionally conveys the idea of striking, beating, or pounding, often in the context of manual labor or agricultural work such as threshing grain. This character appears in classical Chinese texts and historical lexicons but is not commonly employed in modern standard written Chinese, making it a niche element within the broader CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) character set for specialized or archaic usage.
