U+6BC8 "毈" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

毈

U+6BC8 "毈" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and largely obsolete Chinese character traditionally classified as a radical-related character under the "egg" component, 卵. Its meaning refers to an unhatched or rotten egg, often specifically an egg that has failed to develop or has spoiled, and it appears primarily in classical or technical texts. This character is not commonly used in modern Chinese or Japanese writing, but it is preserved in the Unicode standard for the purpose of encoding historical or specialized literature, ensuring that scholars and digital archives can represent it accurately when such a need arises.
