Source: Browser Default
U+6390 "掐" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to pinch," "to nip," or "to grip tightly with the fingers," often involving a quick, sharp squeezing action. It can also refer to the act of "strangling" or "choking" when used in contexts like physical confrontation, and in a more figurative sense, it may mean "to cut off" or "to block," such as in the phrase "掐断" (to sever or cut off a flow). The character is composed of the hand radical 扌 on the left, indicating its association with manual actions, and the phonetic component 臽, which contributes to its pronunciation as "qiā" in Mandarin.
