U+F970 "殺" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+F970 "殺" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# is a compatibility ideograph originally encoded for roundtrip mapping to older East Asian character set standards like the CNS 11643 standard, and it represents the same underlying Chinese character as its unified CJK counterpart U+84EE, which means "lotus" or "water lily" in East Asian languages. This specific compatibility character exists in the Unicode CJK Compatibility Ideographs block, a region of the Unicode standard that preserves precomposed forms from legacy character sets, and it is generally not recommended for use in modern text because its semantic and glyphic functions are already served by the unified character in the main CJK Unified Ideographs block.
