U+F9BC "寮" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+F9BC "寮" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# is a specific, and in modern usage, rare and primarily historical, Han character that was encoded in the Unicode standard's Compatibility Ideographs block to ensure round-trip conversion compatibility with older, pre-existing character set standards, notably those from East Asia. This particular glyph is a duplicate or variant form of a more standard Chinese character (often corresponding to the character pronounced "tang" or similar in Chinese or Korean contexts), but it was preserved in Unicode not for general modern text use, but to allow legacy documents and software to accurately represent their original digital content without information loss when converted between encoding systems. As a compatibility character, it is generally not recommended for use in new text creation, as its function has been largely superseded by the unified CJK unified ideographs.
