U+6A0B "樋" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+6A0B "樋" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) used in both traditional and simplified forms, though it is more common in Japanese and Chinese contexts. It primarily denotes a water pipe or conduit, such as a gutter or drainage channel, and is often used in words related to water flow or plumbing, like "h艐d艒" (樋, literally "water pipe") in Japanese or "樋" in Chinese as a component of compound words. The character is composed of the wood radical (木) on the left, suggesting its original material association, and a phonetic component on the right, reflecting its pronunciation as "t幛ng" in Mandarin or "t艒" or "h艐" in Japanese. In Chinese, it can also refer to a type of tree or a wooden vessel for carrying water, while in Japanese it frequently appears in place names and surnames, such as "樋口" (Higuchi) meaning "mouth of the gutter."
