U+96AF "隯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
隯
U+96AF "隯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character used in traditional and classical texts, primarily functioning as a variant form of the character "島" (island), though it can also represent the concept of a mound or a small hill rising from a plain, often in historical or literary contexts related to geography or place names. Its structure combines the radical for a hill or mound ("阝" on the left) with a phonetic component on the right, reflecting its logographic nature as part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs block. While not commonly used in modern writing, it retains significance in the study of ancient Chinese literature and epigraphy.
