U+9D46 "鵆" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
鵆
U+9D46 "鵆" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex East Asian character composed of elements meaning “bird” and “travel” or “go through,” and it is primarily used in Japanese as a variant or alternative character for the name of the plover bird, which is more commonly written with the simpler kanji 千鳥 (chidori). This character, though seldom encountered in modern everyday text, appears in historical documents, place names, and literary contexts, reflecting the richness and nuanced evolution of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) character repertoire. Its inclusion in the Unicode standard ensures that such infrequently used glyphs remain accessible for digital preservation and specialized scholarly work.
