U+6816 "栖" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+6816 "栖" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to roost" or "to perch," often used in reference to birds settling on a tree, and by extension, it can signify a dwelling place or shelter. It is a variant of the character 棲, sharing the same etymological root, and is commonly found in classical and modern Chinese texts, as well as in Japanese (where it is part of the Joyo kanji list) with similar meanings. The character's structure combines the "tree" radical (木) on the left with the phonetic component 西 (meaning "west"), subtly suggesting a connection to rest or nesting associated with the direction of the setting sun.
