U+6A2F "樯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
樯
U+6A2F "樯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that represents the mast of a ship or boat, specifically referring to the vertical spar on a vessel used for supporting sails and rigging. This ideograph is composed of the wood radical on the left, indicating its connection to wooden structures, and a phonetic component on the right that contributes to its pronunciation in Mandarin as "qiáng". In classical and modern Chinese literature, the character frequently appears in nautical contexts, symbolizing travel, exploration, or the imagery of ships on rivers and seas. As part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs block, it is encoded for cross-linguistic use in East Asian writing systems.
