U+96E1 "雡" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

雡

U+96E1 "雡" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and archaic Chinese character that typically refers to a type of pheasant or specifically to the "long-tailed pheasant" in classical texts. It is composed of the semantic radical for bird or short-tailed bird combined with a phonetic component, and its usage is largely confined to historical literary references rather than modern everyday language. In the Unicode standard, it is classified as a CJK Unified Ideograph, meaning it is used across Chinese, Japanese, and Korean written systems, though its practical occurrence is extremely uncommon. The character appears in traditional Chinese dictionaries and is sometimes found in ancient poetry or descriptions of ceremonial attire, where the long-tailed pheasant's feathers were used as decorative symbols.
