U+9F8E "龎" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+9F8E "龎" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character, a variant form of the more common character "龐" meaning " enormous" "colossal" or "abundant" and is also used in surnames. Its structure combines the radical "龍" (dragon) with components suggesting breadth or extension, and it is historically recorded in classical texts and dictionaries such as the Kangxi Dictionary. While less frequently used in modern simplified Chinese, it still appears in traditional Chinese, Japanese, and Korean contexts as an alternate glyph for expressing vastness or a distinguished family name.
