U+7338 "猸" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
猸
U+7338 "猸" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character primarily used in classical or literary contexts, rather than in modern standard Mandarin. It is composed of the radical for dog or animal (犭) on the left and the phonetic component "眉" on the right, suggesting a semantic connection to beasts or creatures. Historically, "猸" is known to refer to a mythological creature, often described as a fox-like beast with supernatural qualities in ancient Chinese folklore and texts. Its usage is extremely limited today, appearing mainly in specialized dictionaries, historical literature, or as a component in proper names or archaic phrases.
