鹑
U+9E51 "鹑" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that represents a quail, specifically the common quail species, and is traditionally used in East Asian languages such as Mandarin Chinese where it is pronounced as chún. In Chinese culture, this character appears in classical poetry and idioms, often symbolizing humility or modesty due to the quail's modest appearance and perceived unassuming nature. The character is formed as a compound incorporating the radical for bird (鸟) combined with a phonetic component, reflecting its classification within the vast Unicode CJK Unified Ideographs block that encompasses characters from Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Vietnamese scripts.
