U+9E50 "鹐" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
鹐
U+9E50 "鹐" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character that primarily functions as a variant form of the character 鹹, meaning salty, though it can also be associated with the idea of a bird pecking or eating, as its structure combines the radical for bird (鸟) with a phonetic component. In modern standard Mandarin, it is not commonly employed in everyday writing or speech, appearing instead in classical texts or specialized contexts within the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) script tradition where it represents a specific ideograph with historical usage.
