U+9826 "頦" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+9826 "頦" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character used in traditional and simplified writing systems, primarily meaning "chin" or "jaw" and pronounced as "kē" in Mandarin with a first tone. It is composed of the radical 頁 (yè) meaning "head" or "page" on the right side, and the phonetic component 亥 (hài) on the left, which provides a clue to its pronunciation. This character appears in classical and modern Chinese texts, including in compound words like 下巴頦 (xiàbakē) meaning "chin," though it is less common in everyday writing compared to simpler alternatives. Its encoding in Unicode since version 1.1 ensures consistent digital representation across platforms for languages that use CJK script.
