U+8662 "虢" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+8662 "虢" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that historically referred to a specific Zhou dynasty-era state or feudal domain located in what is now modern-day western Henan and eastern Shaanxi provinces. This character, pronounced "Guó" in Mandarin, is composed of the "tiger" radical (虍) combined with the phonetic component 或, and it appears in classical texts such as the Zuo Zhuan to denote the namesakes of the Eastern and Western Guo states, which were influential during the Western Zhou period. In contemporary use, "虢" is primarily encountered in historical or literary contexts, particularly in proper nouns, family names, and place names that preserve its ancient political significance.
