Unicode Version 17.0

篨

U+7BE8 "篨" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily refers to a type of rough bamboo mat or screen historically used in East Asian cultures, particularly in China, for practical purposes such as drying goods or providing shelter. Pronounced roughly as "chu" in Mandarin, it is classified as a radical-based character combining the bamboo radical (⺮) with a phonetic component, and it appears in classical Chinese texts and dictionaries where it denotes materials associated with bamboo weaving or coarse fabric. While not common in modern everyday usage, the character retains relevance in specialized fields like traditional crafts, historical linguistics, and literary studies, where it helps describe artifacts or practices from ancient periods.
