U+981D "頝" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+981D "頝" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character (hanzi) primarily used in classical or literary contexts, and in modern standard Mandarin it is pronounced as "qiāo." Its structure combines the radical 頁 (yè, meaning "head" or "page") on the right side with 交 (jiāo, meaning "to cross" or "to intersect") on the left, and its traditional meaning relates to a coarse or wilful head, or specifically, a head that is stubborn, unyielding, or heavy in a negative sense. This character appears in ancient dictionaries and historical texts, but it has largely fallen out of common usage in contemporary Chinese writing, maintained today mainly for specialized scholarly study of archaic vocabulary.
