U+735F "獟" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
獟
U+735F "獟" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character from the Kangxi radical 94 (犬, meaning dog or animal), classified under the "CJK Unified Ideographs" block. It is read as yào or xiào in Mandarin and generally refers to a type of mythical or fierce beast, often glossed in classical texts as a kind of wild dog or a ferocious mythical creature that resembles a shaggy-haired animal. The character appears in ancient Chinese dictionaries and literary sources, such as the "Shuowen Jiezi," but it is not commonly used in modern writing, making it a specialized glyph of interest primarily to historical linguists, palaeographers, and enthusiasts of rare sinographs.
