U+6753 "杓" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
杓
U+6753 "杓" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily represents a ladle or a scoop, often used for serving liquids or grains, and in classical contexts it can also refer to the handle of a ladle or a spoon. This character is composed of the radical 木 (wood) on the left, indicating its material association, and the phonetic component 勺 (sháo) on the right, which suggests the pronunciation and meaning of a spoon or dipper. In addition to its literal sense, "杓" appears in traditional astronomy as part of the name for the handle of the Big Dipper asterism, known as "北斗杓" in Chinese, and it carries historical significance in texts like the ancient Chinese dictionary "Shuowen Jiezi."
