U+725A "牚" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
牚
U+725A "牚" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare or historical Chinese character that generally means to prop up, to support, or to resist, often associated with the action of using a pole or stick to hold something open or to push against an object. It is composed of two main components: the radical for "ox" or "cow" (牛) on the left, and a phonetic or structural element on the right that suggests the sound "cheng" or "zheng." This character is not commonly used in modern standard Chinese but may appear in classical texts, technical descriptions of ancient tools, or in specialized vocabulary related to structural support or bracing.
