U+969D "隝" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

隝

U+969D "隝" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily functions as a variant or archaic form of the character "島" (dǎo), which means island. Historically, it appears in classical texts and dictionaries, representing an alternative graphical composition for the concept of an island, often with the radical "阝" (a form of 阜, meaning mound or hill) on the left and a phonetic component on the right. While its usage is rare in modern standard Chinese, it may still be encountered in literary, historical, or specialized contexts, serving as an example of the rich graphical variation found within the CJK character repertoire.
