U+7879 "硹" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
硹
U+7879 "硹" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that is primarily used in place names and personal names within the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) writing systems. Its specific meaning is obscure in modern standard written Chinese, though it is thought to be a phonetic loan or a descriptor related to geological or stone features, as it contains the semantic component for "stone" (石) alongside the phonetic element "公" (gōng). Due to its rarity, the character does not appear in common dictionaries and is not included in the standard character sets for everyday communication in Chinese, Japanese, or Korean, making it a specialized glyph typically encountered only in historical texts or localized naming contexts.
