U+7918 "礘" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
礘
U+7918 "礘" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and obscure Chinese character that falls under the Kangxi radical "石" meaning stone, and is primarily found in classical or historical texts where it is used to denote the sound of stones striking each other or the act of crushing or grinding. Its structure combines the stone radical with the phonetic component 盍 (hé), suggesting a link to covering or pressing, which aligns with its semantic associations of forceful collision or pulverization. Due to its specialized and archaic nature, "礘" is not commonly used in modern Chinese or Japanese, and its presence in digital text is limited to specialized lexicons, historical transcription, or linguistic research into ancient phonetics and meaning.
