U+9B90 "鮐" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

鮐

U+9B90 "鮐" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily refers to the pufferfish, also known as blowfish or fugu, which is notable for its potent toxicity and its status as a delicacy in Japanese and Chinese cuisines when prepared by licensed chefs. In classical Chinese texts, the character also appears in the term "鮐背" meaning an aged person with a hunched back, as the pattern of wrinkles on elderly skin was poetically compared to that of the pufferfish's markings. This character is composed of the radical for fish (魚) on the left and a phonetic component on the right, reflecting its categorization within the vast system of CJK unified ideographs used across Chinese, Japanese, and Korean languages.
