U+72EF "狯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+72EF "狯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily functions as a variant or simplified form of the character "獪," which translates to "cunning," "sly," or "crafty." This ideograph is composed of the radical for "dog" or "beast" (犭) on the left, indicating a connection to animals or animalistic traits, and the phonetic component "会" on the right, which suggests its pronunciation in Mandarin as "kuài." In classical and literary Chinese, "狯" often describes a person or creature that is tricky or deceitful, and it appears in historical texts and compound words where the concept of cleverness or guile is emphasized. While less common in modern everyday usage, it remains a recognized character in the Unicode standard for encoding Chinese, Japanese, and Korean (CJK) ideographs.
