U+6913 "椓" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
椓
U+6913 "椓" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character primarily meaning "to knock" or "to strike," often used in historical contexts related to percussion or construction, such as beating a drum or driving a stake. It is composed of the wood radical "木" on the left, and a phonetic component on the right, reflecting its classification as a phonetic-semantic compound. In classical Chinese, it also appears in the term "椓人," referring to a eunuch, derived from the practice of castration, which is an older, more specialized usage. The character is now considered rare in modern standard Chinese, primarily surviving in literary or historical texts.
