U+9CEC "鳬" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+9CEC "鳬" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that represents a variant form of the standard character "鳧" which refers to a wild duck, particularly the mallard or teal, and is used in classical and modern East Asian texts. This ideograph belongs to the CJK Unified Ideographs block and is composed of the "bird" radical with additional phonetic or semantic components. In historical usage, it appears in poetry and literature to denote waterfowl, and it carries cultural associations with freedom and nature in Chinese and Japanese contexts. The character is encoded for compatibility with legacy text systems, preserving the variant glyph for accurate representation of pre-simplified or alternative writing forms.
