About
酃 is a phono-semantic compound: the left component 霝 provides the sound, and the right component 阝 (a reduced form of 邑) marks it as a city or administrative district. The character serves exclusively as a toponym for places in Hunan province, most notably the former Ling County (酃县), which was later reorganized and renamed.
