U+961A "阚" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
阚
U+961A "阚" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character traditionally pronounced as "kàn" in Mandarin, primarily used as a surname in modern contexts. It originally carries meanings related to looking or glancing, and in classical Chinese texts it can also denote a tiger's roar or a sense of fierce boldness. The character is composed of the radical for "gate" on the outside, with a phonetic component inside, placing it among characters associated with entrances or openings in its historical usage. Its simplified form, "阚", is identical to the traditional form, and it appears in some literary works and historical records rather than in everyday contemporary vocabulary.
