U+64AF "撯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+64AF "撯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character composed of the hand radical 扌 on the left and the phonetic component 耆 on the right, with its traditional reading and meaning tied to older or more obscure lexical sources. In classical Chinese texts, this character is documented as a variant form of 耆, meaning "to reach" or "to achieve," particularly in the context of age or attainment, such as in the term 耆老 for an elderly person of distinction. However, it is not commonly used in modern Mandarin or simplified Chinese, and its appearance in the CJK Unified Ideographs block serves primarily to encode a historical or regional character variant for digital text preservation, ensuring compatibility across legacy and scholarly documents.
