U+9E04 "鸄" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+9E04 "鸄" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is an East Asian Han character (CJK, or Chinese-Japanese-Korean) that is categorized under the radical for "bird" (鳥) and historically appears in classical Chinese texts as a compound ideograph, though it is rarely used in modern writing. Its specific meaning is not widely standardized in contemporary dictionaries, but it generally refers to a mythical or obscure bird, possibly related to the "鶄" (a type of water bird) given its structural components and phonetic elements. The character is encoded for compatibility with older or specialized literature, such as the Kangxi Dictionary, where it serves as a preserved glyph for scholarly and digital text representation rather than everyday language use.
