Unicode Version 17.0
舱
U+8231 "舱" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "cabin," "hold," or "compartment," often used in the context of ships, aircraft, or spacecraft. It is composed of a radical related to boats or vessels on the left and a phonetic component on the right, reflecting its semantic connection to enclosed spaces within a vehicle or structure. This character appears frequently in modern Mandarin Chinese terms such as "客舱" (passenger cabin) and "货舱" (cargo hold), and it is also used in technical contexts like space exploration for modules. Its Unicode inclusion in the CJK Unified Ideographs block ensures consistent digital representation across systems for writing Chinese, Japanese, and Korean languages.
