U+7BAD "箭" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+7BAD "箭" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "arrow" and is used in various East Asian languages such as Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. In Chinese, it appears in words like "弓箭" (bow and arrow) and "火箭" (rocket, literally "fire arrow"), while in Japanese it is read as "ya" or "sen" and is a common element in compounds related to archery and direction. The character's structure combines the radical for "bamboo" (⺮) on top, reflecting the historical use of bamboo for arrow shafts, with a phonetic component that contributes to its pronunciation. As part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs set, it encodes a logographic symbol with deep cultural and historical significance in archery, symbolism, and everyday language across these writing systems.
