U+9CEB "鳫" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+9CEB "鳫" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a logogram from the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs block, representing a variant of the character for "wild goose" (often interchangeable with 雁). In traditional Chinese and Japanese usage, this character depicts a bird associated with migration, autumn, and messages, frequently appearing in classical poetry and literary contexts. Its composition combines the radical for "bird" (鳥) with a phonetic component, reflecting its status as a compound ideograph in the Chinese writing system. While less common in modern standard Chinese than its more prevalent counterpart, it remains recognized in historical texts, calligraphy, and certain East Asian dictionaries.
