U+6808 "栈" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
栈
U+6808 "栈" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "warehouse," "depot," "shed," or "inn," and is also used to refer to a "stack" or "pile" in modern computing and data structure contexts. Composed of the "wood" radical (木) on the left and the phonetic component "戋" on the right, its historical use relates to wooden structures such as temporary shelters or storehouses along ancient trade routes. In contemporary Chinese, it appears in words like "客栈" (inn or hostel), "货栈" (goods warehouse), and "栈道" (a plank road built along cliffs). Due to its figurative meaning of layering or stacking, it is also the standard term for a "stack" data structure in computer science in Chinese technical terminology.
