Definition
攸 is a classical Chinese bound form (b.f.) used in formal or literary contexts. It appears in the compound 攸关 (yōuguān) meaning 'to be critically related to' or 'to vitally concern' (e.g., 性命攸关). In classical texts, it can also function as a particle meaning 'that which' or 'the place where' (as in 攸往). As a bound form, it never stands alone and is only found in fixed expressions or classical constructions.
