U+9D97 "鶗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
鶗
U+9D97 "鶗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character (hanzi) that historically refers to a type of bird, specifically the cuckoo or a bird of similar call. In classical Chinese literature, it appears in contexts describing the arrival of spring or as a metaphor for sorrowful cries, often associated with the cuckoo’s mournful song. The character is composed of the radical for "bird" (鳥) on the left and the phonetic component "是" (shì) on the right, though its modern usage is extremely limited and it is not commonly found in contemporary dictionaries or everyday writing.
