U+5C26 "尦" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+5C26 "尦" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character that primarily functions as a variant of the more common character "尥" (liào), which refers to the action of a horse or mule kicking backward with its hind legs. This character is composed of the radical "尢" (meaning lame or crooked) and the phonetic component "勺" (sháo), and it appears in classical texts and some regional dialects. While its usage in modern standard Mandarin is extremely limited, it maintains a specific lexical niche in describing equine behavior and is recognized within Unicode for comprehensive representation of historical and variant Chinese script forms.
