U+8C6E "豮" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+8C6E "豮" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) primarily used in traditional and Classical Chinese contexts. It refers to a castrated pig or hog, often specifically a male pig that has been neutered, and is composed of the radical “豕” (pig) and the phonetic component “贲” (bēn or bì), which contributes to its pronunciation. In modern usage, this character is relatively rare, appearing mostly in agricultural, historical, or literary texts rather than in everyday language, and it exemplifies the specificity of classical Chinese terms for domesticated animals and their husbandry.
