U+8C68 "豨" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+8C68 "豨" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and obsolete Chinese character that historically referred to a large wild pig or boar, specifically a type of swine known for its size and strength. Found in classical Chinese texts and dictionaries, it appears in ancient literature such as the "Shuowen Jiezi" (an early Han dynasty dictionary), where it is defined as a pig weighing over a thousand catties. This character is composed of the radical "豕" (pig) and the phonetic component "希," and while it is not used in modern Chinese, it occasionally appears in historical or linguistic studies of archaic animal terminology or in personal names as a reference to the boar's formidable nature.
