U+99E3 "駣" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+99E3 "駣" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and historically obscure Chinese character that falls under the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs block. Its primary meaning is not fixed in modern dictionaries, but in classical contexts it has been associated with a type of young or spirited horse, sometimes glossed as a foal with particular markings or a horse that changes color with age. The character is composed of the radical 馬 (horse) on the left and the phonetic component 兆 (zhào) on the right, suggesting a connection to sound or omen. Due to its extreme rarity in contemporary usage, it is mainly of interest to paleographers, linguists, and specialists in ancient Chinese texts or bronze inscriptions.
