Source: Browser Default
U+8256 "艖" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character classified as a logogram of the Han script, primarily used in historical or specialized literary contexts. Its meaning relates to a type of small boat or skiff, often depicted as a shallow, flat-bottomed vessel used for river travel or fishing. This ideograph combines the radical 舟 (boat) with a phonetic component to indicate both its semantic field and approximate pronunciation, which in modern Mandarin is read as "chā." While not commonly used in everyday simplified Chinese, it appears in classical texts and older literature, contributing to the rich lexicon of Chinese nautical terminology.
