U+98D6 "飖" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
飖
U+98D6 "飖" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character primarily used in classical or literary contexts, representing the concept of a windblown or drifting motion, often specifically referring to a flag or banner fluttering in the breeze. Composed of the radical for wind (风) and a phonetic component suggestive of floating or wavering, it conveys a poetic sense of movement and airiness. This character appears in historical texts and traditional poetry to evoke visual imagery of gentle or erratic movement, but it is not commonly used in modern standard Mandarin, making it a specialized element within the CJK character set.
