Meanings and usage

proper-noun: Emperor Ku (legendary Chinese emperor)
帝嚳

The page lists a mythological-figure sense and a second obsolete-verb sense ('to be urgent; to inform quickly') that Wiktionary editors themselves flagged for verification, and it's unclear which corresponds to the kog4 reading, so the more established proper-noun sense was chosen.
