About
The character 郿 is a phono-semantic compound whose left side, 眉, suggests the pronunciation, and whose right side, the ear radical 阝, classifies it as a place name. It is employed exclusively as a proper noun for Mei County in present-day Shaanxi Province, a historically strategic area frequently cited in classical texts on regional administration and military operations. Designed as a dedicated toponym, the character has no alternative simplified or traditional forms.
