U+6927 "椧" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
椧
U+6927 "椧" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and specialized Chinese character, primarily used in the context of Japanese as a kokuji (a character invented in Japan rather than borrowed from Chinese). Its meaning is associated with "gutter" or "drain," often referring to a wooden or bamboo conduit for water, such as a rainspout. The character is composed of the radical "木" (tree or wood) on the left and "并" (together or combine) on the right, suggesting a wooden structure that channels water. While it is not commonly used in modern Chinese, it appears in historical or technical Japanese texts related to architecture and water management.
