U+6936 "椶" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+6936 "椶" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that primarily denotes a type of palm tree, specifically the Trachycarpus fortunei, whose fibers are used to make rain capes and ropes. This character appears in classical texts and is closely related to its simplified form "棕," though "椶" is now rarely used in modern standard Chinese. Historically, it was also employed in Japanese kanji before simplifications, and its structure combines the "tree" radical (木) with a phonetic component, reflecting its botanical meaning.
