U+62C5 "担" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
U+62C5 "担" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that primarily means "to carry" or "to undertake," functioning both as a verb for bearing a load or responsibility and as a noun referring to a unit of weight (approximately 60 kilograms) in traditional East Asian measurements. Composed of the radical 扌 (hand, indicating action) and the phonetic component 旦 (dàn, suggesting pronunciation), it appears in common words like 担心 (dānxīn, to worry, literally "carry heart") and 担任 (dānrèn, to assume a role). This character is used across multiple languages that employ CJK characters, including Mandarin Chinese, Japanese (where it is read as "tan" or "katsu" in Kanji), and Korean (where it is read as "dam" in Hanja), reflecting its enduring cultural and practical significance in contexts of physical or figurative burden.
