U+9F98 "龘" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
龘
U+9F98 "龘" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is an extremely rare and complex Chinese character composed of three "龍" (dragon) radicals stacked vertically, representing the appearance of dragons moving or walking. It holds the distinction of being one of the characters with the highest number of strokes in the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) Unicode block, totaling 48 strokes. This ideograph is typically used in classical or historical texts rather than modern language, and it is particularly noted for its presence in the Kangxi Dictionary as a variant of the character "龖," which similarly conveys the idea of dragons in flight.
