U+72D7 "狗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
狗
U+72D7 "狗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that represents the word for "dog." It is composed of two primary components: the radical "犭" (quǎn), which is a simplified form of "犬" meaning dog or animal, and the phonetic element "句" (jù), which hints at the pronunciation. This character is widely used in modern Chinese and Japanese writing, appearing in common words such as "小狗" (small dog) or "子犬" (koinu in Japanese). Its structure reflects the typical logographic nature of CJK scripts, combining semantic and phonetic cues to convey meaning and sound.
