U+9E74 "鹴" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
鹴
U+9E74 "鹴" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character that traditionally represents a type of water bird, often identified as the Mandarin duck or a similar aquatic fowl, though it is also known to refer to a mythical or legendary bird in some classical texts. This character combines the radical for "bird" (鸟) with phonetic components, and it appears in older literature and poetry, such as the "Classic of Poetry," where it symbolizes fidelity or the natural world. Due to its obscurity, it is not commonly used in modern Chinese but remains a point of interest for historical linguistics and classical studies.
