U+980B "頋" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+980B "頋" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare or less common Chinese character that historically serves as a variant form of the character "顧" (gù), which means to look after, to attend to, or to consider. In classical texts, "頋" appears occasionally as an alternative graph for "顧," sharing the same pronunciation and core meanings related to caring for or turning the head to look. While "顧" is standard in modern Chinese, Japanese, and Korean usage, "頋" is considered a nonstandard or ancient variant that may be encountered in historical documents or specialized typography rather than everyday writing. Its structure combines a head or page component (頁) with a phonetic element, though its exact usage is now primarily of interest to scholars of Chinese script history and Unicode encoding.
