禱
U+79B1 "禱" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that represents the concept of prayer, supplication, or making a request to a deity or spiritual force. It is composed of the radical "示" (礻), which relates to spirits, gods, or rituals, and the phonetic component "壽" (shòu, meaning longevity), though its meaning centers on earnest entreaty rather than age. Commonly used in classical texts, religious contexts, and formal writing, this character appears in terms like "禱告" (to pray) and is part of the East Asian CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified character set, where it holds cultural and linguistic significance in conveying devotional or reverent actions.
