U+56BF "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that falls under the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) unified ideographs block, used primarily in traditional Chinese contexts. Its meaning is often associated with a measure word for a clump or chunk of something, such as a lump of earth or a piece of rock, and it carries phonetic and semantic components tied to regional or classical usages, though it is not commonly used in modern standard Mandarin. The character is composed of radicals that suggest its connection to the mouth or enclosure and a phonetic element hinting at its pronunciation, which is traditionally read as "hóu" or similar variants in Cantonese.
