U+7838 "砸" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
砸
U+7838 "砸" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character composed of the stone radical on the left and a phonetic component on the right, and it primarily means "to smash" or "to pound," conveying the action of striking or crushing something with force. It is used in modern Mandarin Chinese in words such as "砸碎" (to smash to pieces) and "砸鍋" (literally "to smash the pot," figuratively meaning to fail or botch a task). This character reflects its etymology, where the stone radical pictographically suggests the use of a hard object to perform the action, and it is commonly encountered in both literal contexts, like breaking objects, and figurative expressions, such as describing a ruined plan or a disastrous performance.
