U+79B8 "禸" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

禸

U+79B8 "禸" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that historically represents the concept of a "leg" or "thigh," often associated with the lower part of an animal's body, and it appears in ancient texts such as the Shuowen Jiezi dictionary. This character, which is rarely used in modern Chinese or Japanese writing, is composed of a distinct graphical form that influenced the development of other characters in the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) script family. Its structure is notable for being a component in more complex ideographs, where it conveys a semantic hint related to body parts or movement, though it is not commonly encountered in everyday digital communication.
