U+88A7 "袧" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+88A7 "袧" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that primarily refers to a type of ancient garment or a specific seam in clothing, often associated with ceremonial robes or the overlapping front of a traditional Chinese dress. Its historical usage appears in classical texts, where it describes the curved or angled part of a garment's collar or the hemline. In modern Chinese, the character is extremely rare and is not commonly used in everyday writing, though it may appear in specialized studies of historical costume or in literary references to ancient attire. The character belongs to the radical for clothing (衣) and carries the phonetic component "句," reflecting its pronunciation as "gōu" or "kòu" in different contexts.
