U+5EC6 "廆" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+5EC6 "廆" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character used in historical and classical texts, primarily functioning as a surname or a place name in ancient records. Its structure combines the radical for "cliff" or "shelter" (广) with a phonetic component (鬼), which is often associated with supernatural or ghostly meanings, though the character itself does not carry a direct negative connotation. In modern Chinese, it is rarely used and is considered obscure, appearing mainly in specialized dictionaries or references to historical figures such as the Jin dynasty official Murong Hui, whose name included this character.
