U+9FF7 "鿷" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+9FF7 "鿷" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a relatively new addition to the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) Unified Ideographs block, having been included in Unicode version 13.0, released in 2020. This character represents a rare or specialized Chinese character, often found in classical texts, historical documents, or technical terminology, such as in the name of a Buddhist treatise or a personal name, though its precise meaning and usage can vary depending on the context. Its encoding fills a gap in the representation of traditional Chinese script, supporting digital preservation and accurate rendering of ancient or niche written materials, particularly in scholarly and linguistic fields.
