U+7EF6 "绶" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
绶
U+7EF6 "绶" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means a ribbon or sash, specifically a cord or band used to attach seals or medals, often associated with official rank or honor in traditional Chinese culture. It is a simplified form of the traditional character "綬" and is composed of the silk radical on the left and the phonetic component "受" on the right, which provides a clue to its pronunciation as "shòu" in Mandarin. This character appears in historical texts and modern usage, particularly in contexts related to imperial regalia, ceremonial attire, or metaphorical expressions of connection and binding.
