U+97DC "韜" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily signifies a bow case or a sheath for a sword, but more broadly conveys the concepts of concealing, hiding, or keeping something secret. It is most famously known for its role in the classical military text "六韜" (The Six Secret Teachings), a foundational work on strategy attributed to the Zhou dynasty sage Jiang Ziya. In modern usage, the character also appears in personal names and phrases like "韜光養晦," which means to hide one's talents and bide one's time, reflecting its enduring association with strategic discretion and humility.
