U+7435 "琵" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+7435 "琵" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily refers to a type of stringed musical instrument, specifically the *pipa*, a traditional Chinese lute. In its composition, the character combines the radical for jade or precious stone (王) on the left, which often relates to artistic or musical associations, and the phonetic component 比 on the right. The character is most famously known as part of the compound word "琵琶" (pipa), where it pairs with another character, 琶, to denote the instrument itself, which has been a central part of Chinese classical music for centuries. Beyond its musical meaning, "琵" rarely stands alone in modern usage, relying on its pairing to convey its full significance in cultural and linguistic contexts.
