Unicode Version 17.0
猖
U+7316 "猖" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily conveys the meaning of "fierce," "wild," or "reckless," often describing an unrestrained or violent nature. It appears in classical and modern Chinese texts, commonly used in compound words like "猖獗" (chāngjué), which means "rampant" or "raging," as in the spread of a disease or disorder. The character combines the radical "犬" (quǎn, meaning dog) on the left, which hints at a bestial or untamed quality, with the phonetic component "昌" (chāng) on the right, contributing to its pronunciation. In historical and literary contexts, it evokes a sense of lawless or aggressive behavior, making it a vivid term for describing chaos or ferocity.
