U+66A0 "暠" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

暠

U+66A0 "暠" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (Hanzi) used in both traditional and simplified forms, primarily in East Asian writing systems. It is pronounced "gǎo" in Mandarin and conveys meanings related to brightness, clarity, or whiteness, often describing a radiant or luminous quality, similar to "bright" or "clear" in English. This character belongs to the CJK Unified Ideographs block and is constructed with the "日" (sun or day) radical on the left, indicating a connection to light or time, combined with a phonetic component on the right that hints at its pronunciation. In classical Chinese texts, it may appear in poetic or descriptive contexts, though it is less common in modern everyday usage, where it sometimes serves as a component in personal names or place names.
