U+77C6 "矆" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+77C6 "矆" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character that primarily functions as a verb meaning "to glare" or "to look at with wide eyes" and can also convey a sense of startling or intimidating someone with a fierce gaze. Its structure combines the "目" (eye) radical on the left, which relates to vision and sight, with a phonetic component on the right that hints at its pronunciation. This character appears in classical Chinese texts and historical dictionaries such as the Kangxi Dictionary, though it is virtually unused in modern language, making it an obscure component of the CJK Unified Ideographs block intended for East Asian writing systems.
