Unicode Version 17.0

U+698B "榋" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character that historically appears in classical texts and names, particularly in nature-related contexts. Its structure combines the "木" (wood or tree) radical with other components, suggesting a connection to a type of tree or wooden object, though its exact meaning and usage are obscure and often debated among specialists. This character is not commonly found in modern Chinese, Japanese, or Korean writing, making it a subject of interest primarily for linguists and scholars of ancient script.
