Unicode Version 17.0
鱤
U+9C64 "鱤" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character that refers to a specific type of mythical or legendary fish, often depicted as a giant fish capable of transforming into a dragon in classical Chinese mythology and literature. It combines the radical for fish with a phonetic component suggesting a sense of daring or courage, reflecting its symbolic association with ambition and metamorphosis. This character is extremely uncommon in modern usage but appears in ancient texts such as the "Shan Hai Jing" or "Classic of Mountains and Seas," where it describes a creature from folklore that embodies the aspiration for transcendence and power.
