U+9A0F "騏" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+9A0F "騏" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that primarily refers to a piebald horse, specifically one with a dark or black coat and white patches, often associated with the concept of a fine or noble steed. It appears in classical texts like the "Shuowen Jiezi," where it is defined as a horse with a black body and yellow markings, and it is also commonly used in given names and poetic contexts to evoke speed, strength, and elegance. The character is composed of the radical "馬" (horse) and the phonetic component "其," and it remains in modern usage in both Traditional Chinese and Japanese (as part of the Kanji set, where it is read as "ki" or "koma"), though it is less frequent in simplified Chinese. As a unified ideograph, it is encoded in the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) block of Unicode, representing a shared cultural and linguistic heritage across East Asian scripts.
