U+7EC1 "绁" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+7EC1 "绁" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily functions in classical and modern Chinese writing. Its meaning is associated with the concept of a rope or a cord, often used specifically to refer to a halter or tether for animals, or more broadly to binding and tying. In historical texts, it can also carry the extended meaning of restraint or control. This character is composed of the radical for silk or thread on the left side, indicating its connection to fibrous materials, and a phonetic component on the right that provides a clue to its pronunciation, which is typically read as "xiè" in standard Mandarin.
