Unicode Version 17.0
檎
U+6A8E "檎" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) and Japanese kanji that originally refers to a type of fruit tree, specifically the Chinese pear or quince, and is most famously used in the Japanese word "ringo" (apple) where it appears as part of the compound "林檎." In modern usage, it is rarely used alone but remains significant in East Asian writing systems as a classic example of a character composed of the "tree" radical (木) combined with a phonetic component, reflecting its botanical meaning.
