U+7FA3 "羣" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

羣

U+7FA3 "羣" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that primarily means a flock, herd, group, or crowd, and is an ancient variant of the more common character 群 (qún). It is composed of the radical 羊 (sheep) on top and the phonetic component 君 (jūn) below, visually suggesting a herd of sheep under a leader. In classical and literary Chinese texts, 羣 appears frequently in philosophical and historical works, such as in Confucian analects, where it denotes a collective of people or animals. Historically interchangeable with 群, this variant is still used in formal writing and traditional contexts, particularly in Taiwan and Hong Kong, and is encoded in the Unicode standard under the CJK Unified Ideographs block to ensure consistent digital representation across systems.
