U+7B2F "笯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+7B2F "笯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character classified under the radical for bamboo (竹) and carries the meaning of a cage, basket, or a confinement device, often specifically referring to a bamboo birdcage or a trap used to capture animals. Historically found in classical Chinese texts, it is not commonly used in modern standard Mandarin but appears in literary or historical contexts, such as in the idiom "构笯" which metaphorically describes a state of imprisonment or restriction. Its structure combines the bamboo radical top with the phonetic component "奴" beneath, reflecting its logographic nature in representing both a tangible object and an abstract concept of enclosure.
