U+657A "敺" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+657A "敺" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character used in both ancient and classical texts, where its primary meaning relates to driving, expelling, or chasing away, often referring to the act of driving animals or people. It has historical significance in contexts such as military maneuvers or exorcism rituals, and it is partially related to the more common modern character "驅" (qū). This ideograph is part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified block, and while it appears in historical literary works and some traditional dictionaries, it is considered rare in contemporary daily writing, having been largely replaced by simpler or more widely standardized forms.
