U+97A5 "鞥" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+97A5 "鞥" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and obscure Chinese character classified under the Kangxi radical 177, which represents leather or hide. This character is pronounced "eng" in Mandarin and appears in classical texts, though its specific meaning is not widely defined or commonly used in modern Chinese. It is noted to describe the action of covering or wrapping with leather, akin to a gentle or muffling sound, and is particularly associated with the sound of a horse's bit or bridle being adjusted. Due to its rarity, "鞥" is largely absent from contemporary dictionaries and everyday language, making it a specialized entry in the Unicode standard for preserving historical and complex Chinese script.
