U+976A "靪" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

靪

U+976A "靪" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and historically complex character primarily found in classical Chinese texts, where it functions both as a noun referring to a type of shoe or heel patch and as a verb meaning to mend or repair footwear. Its structure combines the radical "革" (leather or hide) on the left, indicating its association with leatherworking, and the phonetic component "丁" (ding) on the right, which suggests its pronunciation in Middle Chinese. This character is not common in modern Chinese, Japanese, or Korean scripts, and it appears mostly in specialized dictionaries or historical literature about traditional craftsmanship.
