U+64B7 "撷" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
撷
U+64B7 "撷" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character primarily used in modern standard Mandarin and Classical Chinese, where it functions as a verb meaning to pluck, pick, or take up, often in a careful or selective manner, such as gathering leaves, flowers, or by extension, abstract elements like memories or knowledge. Its composition features the radical "扌" on the left, which indicates a hand-related action, and the phonetic component "颉" on the right, which contributes to its pronunciation often rendered as "xié" in pinyin. The character appears in literary and poetic contexts, as well as in compound words, for example in the term "撷取" (xiéqǔ) meaning to glean or extract.
