U+9FA5 "龥" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
龥
U+9FA5 "龥" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character that traditionally represents a concept related to speech, calling out, or a musical instrument, though its precise meaning and usage have largely faded from modern Chinese. This glyph, classified under the CJK Unified Ideographs block, is composed of the radical for "mouth" or "sound" combined with other elements, and it is most notably recognized as one of the characters included in the Unicode standard for historical or literary texts. Its usage is extremely limited today, appearing mainly in archaic dictionaries, classical literature, or specialized character sets, making it an obscure but valid entry in the vast repository of Chinese script.
