U+66F7 "曷" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+66F7 "曷" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that primarily functions as an interrogative word in classical Chinese, meaning "Why," "How," "What," or "When," often used in literary and historical texts to pose questions or express rhetorical inquiry. Its structure combines the radical for "sun" or "day" (日) with other components, and it appears in classical works such as the Confucian Analects and historical chronicles, where it serves as a formal or archaic alternative to more common modern interrogatives. While its usage has largely faded from everyday contemporary Chinese, it remains an important element in the study of classical literature and ancient Chinese grammar.
