U+982F "頯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

頯

U+982F "頯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character primarily composed of a phonetic and semantic element, where the left side typically suggests a connection to the face or jaw area, as seen in the radical for "page" or "head," while the right side provides a clue to its pronunciation in certain historical dialects. Its classical meaning in ancient texts, such as the *Zhuangzi* or *Classic of Poetry*, refers to the cheekbones or the prominent bones of the face, often used metaphorically to describe a proud or imposing demeanor. In modern usage, this character is extremely uncommon, appearing mostly in specialized scholarly discussions of archaic literature or in the context of rare personal names, and it is not a standard part of everyday written Chinese. The character's structure and low frequency highlight how the CJK Unified Ideographs encode many antiquated or geographically specific glyphs that contribute to the vast repository of historical East Asian writ
