U+797C "祼" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
祼
U+797C "祼" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character that historically refers to a ritual libation or offering of wine in ancient ceremonial contexts, particularly associated with Zhou dynasty rites where it denoted pouring a fermented beverage as a sacrifice to ancestors or deities. Its structure combines the radical 礻 (meaning "spirit" or "worship") with the phonetic component 果, though its usage is largely archaic and specialized, appearing in classical texts rather than modern standard Chinese. The character is distinct from the more common homophone 裸 (meaning "naked") but shares a similar etymology in terms of phonetic construction.
