U+6984 "榄" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+6984 "榄" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character used in modern written Chinese, primarily found in the word "橄榄" (gǎn lǎn), which means olive. This character is composed of the wood radical on the left side and the phonetic component "览" on the right, reflecting its associative meaning with a type of tree. Beyond botanical references, "榄" also appears in compounds like "榄仁" (olive kernel) and is used in transliterations, such as in the name of the tropical fruit "橄榄球" (olive ball, meaning rugby in some contexts). As part of the CJK Unified Ideographs block, it represents a standard logogram shared across Chinese, Japanese, and Korean writing systems, though its usage is most common in Chinese.
