U+9B98 "鮘" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+9B98 "鮘" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character that falls under the CJK Unified Ideographs block, which encompasses historical and modern Han characters used in Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Vietnamese writing systems. This particular character is composed of the radical "魚" (fish) on the left and the phonetic component "臺" (tai) on the right, suggesting it may denote a specific type of fish or a related concept, though its usage in contemporary texts is extremely limited. It is believed to be a variant or obsolete form, with no widely recognized standard definition in modern dictionaries. The character is encoded in Unicode to preserve historical linguistic diversity and ensure digital representation of obscure or archaic scripts.
