U+9162 "酢" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+9162 "酢" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) and Japanese kanji that primarily denotes vinegar, though it also carries an ancient meaning related to a return offering or toasting ritual in ceremonial contexts. In modern usage, it appears in words such as "酢酸" (sakusan, meaning acetic acid) in Japanese and in compounds like "果酢" (guǒ cù, meaning fruit vinegar) in Chinese. The character combines the radical 酉 (yǒu), associated with fermentation or alcohol, and the phonetic component 乍 (zhà), which hints at its pronunciation. Its historical role in both culinary and ritual language underscores its evolution from a term for a sour condiment to a specialized chemical term in contemporary East Asian languages.
