U+9DAE "鶮" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
鶮
U+9DAE "鶮" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare ancient Chinese character classified under the Kangxi radical for "bird" (鳥) and is often considered a variant or alternative form of the more common character "鶴" (hè), meaning "crane." Historically, it appears in classical Chinese texts and inscriptions, where it likely denoted the same elegant long-legged bird associated with longevity and immortality in East Asian culture. Today, this character is seldom used in modern standard Chinese or Japanese, and its primary interest lies in historical linguistics and paleography, serving as a testament to the complex evolution of Chinese script over millennia.
