U+9BBA "鮺" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
鮺
U+9BBA "鮺" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character that combines the radical for fish (鱼) with a phonetic component. Its traditional meaning refers to a type of salted or preserved fish, often associated with pickled or cured preparations in ancient Chinese cuisine. The character is not commonly found in modern standard Chinese or Japanese, but it appears in historical texts and classical dictionaries where it describes a specific method of fish preservation. Its structure reflects the broader CJK tradition of forming characters from semantic and phonetic elements.
