U+F9DB "率" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+F9DB "率" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# is a specific glyph within the CJK Compatibility Ideographs block, which was encoded to preserve the exact, often simplified or variant, shapes of Chinese characters used in older Japanese and Korean computer systems for backward compatibility. This particular ideograph corresponds to the standard CJK character that is pronounced as "lü" and means "rate" or "proportion" in modern Chinese, but its encoding at this codepoint is primarily intended for round-trip conversion with older character sets where its graphical form differed from the unified version in the main CJK Unified Ideographs block. As a compatibility character, it is generally not recommended for use in new text, as it duplicates the semantics of its unified counterpart, and its rendering depends on the font’s support for these legacy forms.
