U+6A8C "檌" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+6A8C "檌" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and historical Chinese character primarily used in ancient texts, where it carries the meaning of a "crime" or "sin," often associated with moral or legal wrongdoing. This ideograph is composed of the wood radical on the left and a phonetic component on the right, reflecting its classification as a phono-semantic compound in traditional Chinese script. Due to its obscurity, the character is not commonly found in modern Chinese, Japanese, or Korean lexicons, and it is typically encountered only in specialized scholarly contexts such as the study of classical literature or paleography.
