U+6718 "朘" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

朘

U+6718 "朘" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character that traditionally refers to a child's genitals, specifically the penis of a young boy, and is closely related to the character 脧, which shares the same meaning. In classical texts, it appears in medical or anatomical contexts, such as descriptions in ancient Chinese medical literature like the Huangdi Neijing, where it denotes the male reproductive organ in infancy. The character is composed of the radical for "moon" or "flesh" (月) on the left and the phonetic component 夋 on the right, though it is seldom used in modern standard Chinese and is considered an obscure, regionally restricted, or archaic term. Due to its sensitive nature and rarity, it is typically only encountered in specialized sinological, historical, or lexicographical studies.
