U+65DF "旟" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+65DF "旟" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is an ancient Chinese character that represents a type of military flag or banner, specifically one used in antiquity to signal troop movements or denote authority, often depicted with a feather or pennant design. This ideograph belongs to the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified script and is pronounced "yú" in modern Mandarin. It appears in classical texts such as the "Shijing" (Book of Songs), where it symbolizes command or the mustering of forces, and its structure combines the radical for a flag or cloth (方) with the phonetic component 與, reflecting its historical role in ritual and warfare.
