U+878B "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character used in East Asian writing systems, primarily representing a type of insect or arthropod, often associated with centipedes or venomous creatures in classical and modern contexts. It is composed of the radical for "insect" or "worm" (虫) combined with a phonetic component, and its usage appears in historical texts such as the Erya, an ancient Chinese dictionary, where it refers to a venomous creature like a scorpion or a stinging insect. In modern Mandarin, it is pronounced "sōu" and can be found in specialized vocabulary or literary references, though it is not commonly used in everyday language.
