鲙
U+9C99 "鲙" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (Hanzi) that is used in the writing of traditional and simplified Chinese, and is pronounced "kuài" in Mandarin. It is a combined character, typically featuring a radical related to fish (鱼) on the left, and a phonetic component (会) on the right, which suggests it refers to a type of fish dish or finely sliced meat. Historically, the character is associated with "kuai," a term for sliced raw fish or meat, similar to sashimi, and appears in classical literature and culinary contexts in East Asian cuisine. In modern usage, it is less common but still recognized in proper names, historical texts, and regional culinary terminology.
