U+8BEA "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) used in the written form of Mandarin and other varieties of Chinese. Its pronunciation in modern standard Mandarin is typically given as "zhōu" or "zhòu," depending on the context, and its semantic range often involves concepts related to deceit, trickery, or swindling, as it is composed of the speech radical (讠) and the phonetic component (寿). Found in classical and literary texts rather than everyday modern usage, this character appears in dictionaries and digital character sets as part of the broader CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs block, serving as a precise representation for historical or specialized writing.
