U+4F37 "伷" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
伷
U+4F37 "伷" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that historically means "a feudal prince" or "a ruler of a state," and it is also associated with the concept of "a line of descent" or "a lineage," often used in classical texts to denote a noble heir or a lord. It is composed of the radical "亻" (person) on the left and the phonetic component "由" on the right, reflecting its pronunciation similar to "zhòu" in Mandarin. This character appears in ancient Chinese literature, such as the Zuo Zhuan, where it refers to a chief or a descendant of a ruling family, though it is rarely used in modern everyday Chinese and is considered an archaic or literary term.
