鲩
U+9CA9 "鲩" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (Hanzi) that specifically refers to a type of freshwater fish, most commonly recognized as the grass carp or Chinese carp, which is an important species in aquaculture and Chinese cuisine. This character is a simplified form, contrasting with the traditional variant "鯇," and it combines the radical for fish (鱼) with the phonetic component "完" to convey its meaning and pronunciation. As part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs block, "鲩" is used in modern written Chinese, particularly in contexts involving fishing, food, or biological descriptions, and it carries the standard Mandarin pronunciation "huàn."
