U+8C5E "豞" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+8C5E "豞" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character that belongs to the "pig" or "swine" radical (豕) and is historically used in classical or literary contexts. Its pronunciation is generally given as "hòu" in Mandarin, and its meaning is often associated with the sound or name of a type of animal, specifically referencing the snorting or grunting of a pig, or possibly denoting a mythical creature. While not commonly used in modern standard Chinese, it may appear in historical texts, regional vocabulary, or specialized dictionaries, reflecting the vast and nuanced nature of the CJK unified ideographs that represent thousands of years of written East Asian language evolution.
