About
鄤 is a phono-semantic compound created to name a geographical entity. The right radical 阝, from 邑, marks it as a city or region, while the left component 曼 gives the pronunciation. Its only use is as a proper noun for an ancient place in historical China, either a specific location or administrative territory. It carries no extended meanings and never functions as a common noun or verb.
