## Translingual

| Traditional | 拔 |
| Simplified | 拔 |
| Japanese | 抜 |
| Korean | 拔 |

### Alternative forms

* In traditional Chinese and Korean scripts, the bottom right component of 犮 is written 乂 instead of 又 (as found in the Kangxi dictionary).
* In simplified Chinese and Vietnamese scripts, the bottom right component of 犮 is written 又 (友 with a dot on the top right corner). Due to Han unification, both traditional and simplified forms are encoded under the same codepoint. A CJK compatibility ideograph (U+2F8B6) exists corresponding to this form.
* In Japanese, the right component 犮 is simplified to 友 instead, giving 抜 (U+629C).

### Han character

拔 (Kangxi radical 64, 手+5, 8 strokes, cangjie input 手戈大水 (QIKE) or 手戈大大 (QIKK), four-corner 5304$_7$, composition ⿰扌犮(GHTJK))

#### Derived characters

* 菝

#### Descendants

* 抜 (Japanese shinjitai)
