U+7F56 "罖" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+7F56 "罖" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and historical Chinese character included in the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) unified ideographs block. Its structure combines the radical for "net" (罒) with a phonetic component, and it is known to appear in classical Chinese texts such as the "Kangxi Dictionary," where it is defined as a variant form of the character 羅 (luó), meaning "to net" or "to catch." In modern usage, this character is extremely uncommon and is generally not part of standard contemporary Chinese, Japanese, or Korean writing systems, making it of primary interest to scholars of historical orthography and ancient manuscript studies.
