Additionally, it is sometimes used as a surname. This character belongs to the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs block, and while it is not frequently used in modern standard Chinese, it may appear in classical texts or historical documents. Its stroke count and structure follow typical CJK composition rules, reflecting its role as an archaic or less common form within the sinograph writing system.
