U+79C3 "秃" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+79C3 "秃" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "bald" or "bare," referring to a lack of hair on the head or a treeless, barren landscape. It is composed of the radical 禾 (grain, representing crops or vegetation) and the phonetic component 几 (a small table or a few), though the modern meaning emphasizes emptiness or absence. This character appears in various East Asian languages, including Chinese and Japanese, where it is also used metaphorically to describe something stripped, blunt, or pointed, such as a bald mountain or a worn-out brush tip. In practical usage, it often appears in words like 秃頭 for bald head or 禿鷲 for the bald vulture species, reflecting its core association with denudation.
