U+8975 "襵" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
襵
U+8975 "襵" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character that primarily refers to a fold, pleat, or wrinkle in fabric, often associated with the act of folding or gathering cloth. It is composed of the radical 衣 (clothing) on the left, indicating its connection to garments, and a phonetic component on the right that suggests its pronunciation, which in Mandarin is zhě. This character appears in historical and classical Chinese texts, particularly in descriptions of traditional clothing or textile craftsmanship, and is distinct from the more common character 褶 (also zhě) for pleats, though they share similar meanings in certain contexts.
