U+981F "頟" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

頟

U+981F "頟" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character composed of the radical for "head" or "page" (頁) combined with a phonetic component, historically used in classical texts to mean "forehead" or "brow," often serving as a variant form of the more common character 額 (é). This character appears in older literary and historical documents, particularly in premodern Chinese writing, where it denotes the front part of the head, and it is sometimes employed in proper names or specialized contexts within East Asian typography. Its usage reflects the intricate evolution of Chinese script, where alternate glyphs were preserved in classical lexicons and calligraphic traditions.
