U+9DE8 "鷨" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
鷨
U+9DE8 "鷨" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character that primarily appears in classical or specialized texts rather than modern everyday use. Its structure combines the radical for "bird" (鳥) with a phonetic component, and it is traditionally associated with a specific type of bird, often identified in older dictionaries as a kind of large, fabled avian creature. Due to its obscurity, the character is not commonly found in standard modern Chinese or Japanese typography, and its precise meaning can vary depending on the historical or literary context in which it appears, sometimes referring to a mythological bird or a species mentioned in ancient encyclopedic works.
