U+96BF "隿" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+96BF "隿" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and ancient Chinese character that represents a concept related to hunting or shooting birds with a bow and arrow, and its structure combines the radical for "bird" (隹) with a phonetic or semantic component. This character appears in classical Chinese texts from the Han dynasty or earlier, such as in the "Shuowen Jiezi" dictionary, where it is described as referring to a type of falcon or the act of capturing prey. Historically, it falls within the broader category of characters associated with fowling and archery, though it is not commonly used in modern Chinese or Japanese writing. Its encoding in the Unicode standard ensures its preservation for digital text and scholarly work involving classical literature and etymology.
