U+69C8 "槈" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+69C8 "槈" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that belongs to the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) unified ideographs block, representing a traditional logographic symbol used in East Asian written languages. Its primary meaning relates to an agricultural tool or implement, specifically described in classical Chinese lexicons as a type of hoe or weeding tool used for tilling soil and removing weeds from farmland. The character is composed of the radical for wood (木) indicating material, combined with a phonetic component that hints at its pronunciation in Middle Chinese, which is typically read as "nòu" in modern Mandarin. Though not commonly used in everyday modern writing, it appears in historical texts, classical literature, and specialized dictionaries documenting archaic farming equipment and ancient Chinese agrarian vocabulary.
