U+8664 "虤" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

虤

U+8664 "虤" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and archaic Chinese character that primarily denotes the idea of "two tigers" or "tiger's glare," often carrying connotations of fierceness, anger, or intense contention. Composed of two instances of the radical 虍 (tiger) side by side, its structure visually suggests a pair of tigers confronting each other, and in classical texts it is sometimes used to describe the sound of a tiger's roar or the aggressive posture of these animals. Due to its extreme rarity in modern usage, this character is primarily of interest to historical linguistics, paleography, and specialized typographic studies, representing a vivid but largely obsolete element of the Chinese writing system.
