U+9809 "頉" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
頉
U+9809 "頉" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily functions as a variant form of the character "頤" (yí), which relates to the chin, jaw, or the act of nourishing and maintaining one's health or complexion. In classical and some modern contexts, it can be used as a surname or appear in certain literary and historical texts, though it is relatively rare in contemporary usage. The character belongs to the radical "頁" (page or head), which is associated with head-related meanings, and its structure combines this radical with the phonetic component "乁" to denote its specific sound and semantic nuance.
