U+9DCE "鷎" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+9DCE "鷎" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character (hanzi) that typically appears in classical or literary texts, representing a specific type of bird, often identified with the seagull or a related waterfowl, though its precise modern usage is extremely limited and it is not commonly found in everyday written Chinese. This character belongs to the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) unified ideographs block, and its structure combines the semantic radical for "bird" (鳥) with a phonetic component that suggests its pronunciation, generally approximated as "gāo" in Mandarin. Due to its obscurity, it is rarely supported in standard fonts and may display as a placeholder or missing glyph on many systems unless specialized CJK typefaces are installed.
