U+7AF9 "竹" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+7AF9 "竹" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a logogram representing the Chinese word for "bamboo," a plant deeply symbolic in East Asian cultures for resilience, flexibility, and integrity. In its written form, this character depicts two vertical strokes resembling bamboo stalks with slight leaves or nodes, and it is used across Chinese, Japanese, and Korean writing systems. As a Kangxi radical (number 118), it also serves as a foundational component in many other characters related to bamboo objects, such as baskets, flutes, or writing brushes, reflecting the material's historical importance in everyday life and art. The character itself is encoded in the Unicode standard to ensure consistent digital representation across platforms and languages.
