U+9061 "遡" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+9061 "遡" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese and Japanese kanji character that primarily means "to go upstream" or "to trace back to the source." It is composed of the radical for "movement" or "walk" (辵) combined with the phonetic component "朔" (shuò), and is commonly used in words like "遡及" (sokyū, meaning "retroactive" in Japanese) or "追溯" (zhuīsù, meaning "to trace back" in Chinese). In classical texts, it often conveys the physical action of navigating against a current, but in modern usage it has been extended to a more abstract sense, such as recalling past events or investigating origins.
