U+736F "獯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
獯
U+736F "獯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that historically refers to the Xunyu, a name used in ancient Chinese texts for a nomadic tribe sometimes identified with the early Huns or a predecessor group to the Xiongnu, encountered during the Shang and Zhou dynasties. This character, composed of the radical for dog or beast on the left side and a phonetic component on the right, carries connotations of both a specific tribal name and a general sense of barbarian or foreign people in classical usage. In modern Chinese, it is rarely used as a standalone term but appears in historical or literary contexts, retaining its connection to ancient northern ethnic groups and their interactions with early Chinese states.
