U+67AF "枯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
枯
U+67AF "枯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (kanji in Japanese, hanja in Korean) that primarily means "wither," "dry up," or "decay." It is composed of the radical for "tree" or "wood" (木) on the left and the phonetic component 古 on the right, visually suggesting the concept of something wooden becoming old and dried. In classical and modern East Asian literature, 枯 often describes dead trees, withered plants, or the state of being parched, and it carries metaphorical connotations of barrenness or decline, such as in the term 枯葉 (kareha in Japanese) for "dead leaf" or 枯燥 (kūzào in Chinese) for "dull" or "dry."
