U+655C "敜" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

敜

U+655C "敜" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese Han character that primarily conveys the meaning of "to cover" or "to stop up," often associated with the action of patting or pressing down to seal something. Its structure combines the radical "攵" (meaning "to strike" or "to act") on the right with a phonetic or semantic component on the left, reflecting its historical use in classical texts. While not common in modern Mandarin, it appears in literary or historical contexts, such as in the phrase "敜其口" (covering one's mouth), illustrating a tactile, physical action. This character is part of the broader CJK unified ideographs block, which encompasses characters from Chinese, Japanese, and Korean languages, and it is encoded with a specific Unicode value for consistent digital representation across platforms.
