U+68D7 "棗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
棗
U+68D7 "棗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is the codepoint for the Chinese character "棗," which primarily denotes the jujube fruit, also known as the Chinese date. This ideograph is composed of the "wood" radical 木 at the bottom, signifying its relation to trees, and a top portion indicating repeated or clustered elements, reflecting the way jujubes grow in bunches on the tree. In traditional Chinese culture, the character is often associated with sweetness, fertility, and auspiciousness, frequently appearing in idioms and festive decorations, particularly during weddings and the Lunar New Year, as its name sounds similar to the word for "early" or "soon," symbolizing the arrival of good fortune.
