U+78EB "磫" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+78EB "磫" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (Hanzi) that falls under the Kangxi radical 112, meaning "stone," and is typically used in classical or literary contexts. Its pronunciation in Mandarin is "zōng" or "cōng," and it conveys the meaning of a fine, powdery stone or a gritty texture, often associated with grinding or abrasive materials. The character is composed of the stone radical on the left and the phonetic component "宗" on the right, which hints at its sound while contributing to its semantic field related to stone or rock. While not commonly used in modern Chinese, it appears in historical texts or specialized terminology describing stone surfaces or mineral properties.
