U+96F8 "雸" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+96F8 "雸" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and obscure character from the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) unified ideographs block, specifically classified under the Kangxi radical 172 for "short-tailed bird," though it is not a commonly used character in modern Chinese or Japanese writing. Its traditional meaning is associated with "the cold or frost of the morning," and it appears in some classical Chinese texts where it describes atmospheric conditions, particularly related to the early morning chill. In practical usage, it is extremely infrequent in contemporary digital communication and is primarily of interest to scholars of historical linguistics or those studying obscure classical literature.
