U+9741 "靁" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

靁

U+9741 "靁" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that represents the concept of thunder, often used interchangeably with the more common character "雷." Its structure combines the radical for rain (雨) above a phonetic component, and historically it appears in classical texts and oracle bone script as a variant form of thunder. While largely obsolete in modern simplified Chinese, it remains significant in historical linguistics and calligraphy, where its complex strokes evoke the sound and power of thunder in ancient written culture.
