U+97F8 "韸" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+97F8 "韸" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and ancient Chinese character that primarily functions as a surname and also appears in classical texts, though it is not commonly used in modern standard Chinese. Its structure comprises the radical "韋" (leather, tanned hide) on the left and the phonetic component "夆" on the right, which suggests a possible historical pronunciation related to feng or peng. In historical contexts, such as the Song dynasty text "百家姓," it was listed as a family name, but contemporary usage has faded, with the character often being obscure even to native readers. Overall, this ideograph represents a specialized piece of the vast CJK lexicon, largely preserved in historical records rather than active daily communication.
