U+8659 "虙" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+8659 "虙" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that is classified under the Kangxi radical 141 (虍, representing a tiger) and historically signifies a mythical beast or a variant of the character "伏" (fú), often associated with the legendary ancient figure Fuxi (伏羲) in certain texts. It is primarily encountered in classical Chinese literature and historical documents, rather than in modern everyday usage, and its structure combines the tiger radical with the phonetic component "必" (bì), reflecting a logographic composition typical of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) script systems.
