U+FA65 "贈" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+FA65 "贈" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# is a compatibility ideograph from the CJK Compatibility Ideographs block, which was encoded to preserve the shape of a character used in older Japanese industrial standards (JIS) for round-trip compatibility with legacy text. This specific character is a variant form of a more common Chinese or Japanese character, and its use is discouraged in favor of its standard CJK Unified Ideographs counterpart. Compatibility ideographs like U+FA65 were included in Unicode primarily to allow lossless mapping of pre-existing character sets, but they are not intended for active use in modern text, as they duplicate the semantics and meaning of their unified equivalents.
