U+8C43 "豃" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+8C43 "豃" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character that appears in the Unicode Standard under the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) Unified Ideographs block, though it is not commonly used in modern writing. Its traditional definition relates to a deep, gaping hole or a steep, rugged chasm, often appearing in classical Chinese texts to describe treacherous terrain or fissures in the earth. The character is built from the radical for "cave" or "hole" combined with phonetic components, hinting at its meaning of a deep void. Because of its obscurity, it is seldom encountered in everyday language and may require specialized fonts or input methods to display correctly, making it a point of interest for linguists and those studying obscure or historical Chinese script.
