U+64C8 "擈" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+64C8 "擈" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character that belongs to the Kangxi radical for hand or action, represented by the component 扌. Its primary meaning is related to striking or hitting, and it is historically considered a variant or alternative form of the more common character 撲 (pū, meaning to pounce or beat). While not frequently encountered in modern simplified Chinese, the glyph structure combines the hand radical with the phonetic component 菐 (pú), and its usage is largely confined to classical texts or specialized historical contexts rather than everyday writing.
