U+6981 "榁" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+6981 "榁" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character that refers to a specific type of tree, namely the Japanese black pine, also known as the needle juniper or "maki" in Japanese. In modern usage, it is most commonly found in Japanese as a kanji, appearing in place names, surnames, and some compound words, but it is rarely used in contemporary Chinese. The character's radical is "木" (wood or tree), and its structure combines this with a phonetic component, though its exact historical etymology is not widely documented. Overall, U+6981 serves as an example of a specialized, regionally specific ideograph within the broader CJK Unicode block.
