U+9DB3 "鶳" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
鶳
U+9DB3 "鶳" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character composed of the radical for "bird" (鳥) and the phonetic component "師" (shi). It is not commonly used in modern standard Chinese, Japanese, or Korean, and its meaning is generally obscure or obsolete, potentially referring to a specific type of bird or serving as a historical or regional variant without a well-documented definition in major dictionaries. This character primarily exists as part of the CJK Unified Ideographs block within the Unicode standard, which aims to encode characters from historical and classical texts, thus preserving it as a linguistic artifact rather than an active element of contemporary writing systems.
