U+6861 "桡" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+6861 "桡" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character used in both traditional and simplified writing, primarily pronounced as "ráo" in Mandarin. It originally refers to the oar of a boat, specifically the part used for rowing or steering, and by extension conveys actions like bending, curving, or weakening, as the character includes the wood radical "木" indicating its material association. In classical texts, it can also appear in compounds related to boat navigation or metaphorically to describe something yielding or pliable.
