Unicode Version 17.0

梁

U+6881 "梁" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "beam," "ridge," or "bridge," often referring to a horizontal structural support in architecture, such as a roof beam or a crossbeam in traditional wooden buildings. It also carries extended meanings related to a bridge over water, a raised path, or a key supporting figure within an organization. In Chinese surnames, it is a common family name, notably borne by historical figures like the legendary general Liang Hongyu. The character appears in various compound words, including 桥梁 (bridge), 脊梁 (backbone), and 梁山 (Liangshan, a mountain associated with the classic novel Water Margin). Its composition combines the radical for wood (木) with a phonetic component, reflecting its tangible and metaphorical connections to support and structure.
