U+9D45 "鵅" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+9D45 "鵅" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and ancient Chinese character that is primarily found in classical texts and historical dictionaries rather than in modern daily usage. Its meaning is generally associated with the term for a type of bird, often specifically identified as a waterfowl or a cormorant, similar to the more common character "鸬" (lú) which denotes the cormorant used for fishing. The character is composed of the "bird" radical (鳥) on the left and the phonetic element "各" (gè) on the right, which influences its pronunciation. In modern Standard Mandarin, it is read as "luò" or "gé" depending on the context, though it remains obscure and is seldom used outside of specialized lexicographical or sinological study.
