U+9B40 "魀" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
魀
U+9B40 "魀" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and obscure Chinese character that falls within the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) unified ideographs block. It is not commonly used in modern standard Chinese, Japanese, or Korean, and its precise meaning is unclear or archaic, often relating to ancient or variant forms of other characters. In traditional Chinese texts or dictionaries, it may appear as a variant of characters like 魀 or 䰫, possibly associated with mythological or ghostly concepts, as its radical 鬼 (ghost) suggests a supernatural or demonic connection. Due to its rarity, it is primarily of interest to historical linguists, paleographers, or specialists studying obscure or ancient East Asian scripts.
