What 港 means
It carries the meaning of 港, not a separate word.
Taiwan’s CNS 11643 character set lists this form as 6-4A65, preserving its entry when text moves between that standard and Unicode. In Chinese, 港 (Mandarin gǎng; Cantonese gong2) means a port or harbor; an older Chinese dictionary also records a side stream branching from a larger river or lake. Japanese reads 港 as minato on its own or kō in compounds. Korean uses 港 as Hanja (Chinese characters used in Korean), read hang in port-related words.
