U+9378 "鍸" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+9378 "鍸" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily functions as a variant of the more common character "胡" (hú). Its meaning is closely tied to the concept of a "foreigner" or "barbarian," particularly from the northern or western regions in ancient Chinese contexts, and it can also refer to "reckless" or "wild" behavior. Additionally, it is sometimes used as a surname. This character belongs to the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs block, and while it is not frequently used in modern standard Chinese, it may appear in classical texts or historical documents. Its stroke count and structure follow typical CJK composition rules, reflecting its role as an archaic or less common form within the sinograph writing system.
