U+7B52 "筒" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
筒
U+7B52 "筒" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a kanji and Han character that primarily represents the concept of a tube, cylinder, or pipe, often made from bamboo, as suggested by its radical ⺮ (bamboo). In Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, it is used in words like "筒状" (cylindrical shape) or "筒" (tube), and it appears in compounds such as "筒井" (a well with a cylindrical shaft). Its structure combines the bamboo radical with the phonetic component "同," emphasizing both its material and sound. Historically, it referred to a bamboo tube or container, and it remains common in modern East Asian languages for cylindrical objects, including tools like blowpipes or sleeves for arrows.
