U+9BEF "鯯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
鯯
U+9BEF "鯯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character that belongs to the CJK Unified Ideographs block, representing a fish-like entity or concept, though its precise meaning and usage are obscure and not widely documented in standard modern dictionaries. This character is composed of the radical for fish (鱼 or 魚) combined with a phonetic component, typical of many Chinese logograms that categorize aquatic creatures. Due to its rarity, it is largely absent from common text databases and is primarily of interest to specialists in historical linguistics or character encoding, serving as a niche example of the extensive repertoire of encoded East Asian glyphs.
