U+F979 "凉" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+F979 "凉" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# is a compatibility ideograph included in the Unicode standard to represent a variant or simplified form of the Chinese character 涼, which means "cool" or "cold." It falls within the CJK Compatibility Ideographs block, a section specifically designed to encode duplicate characters from legacy East Asian character sets, such as those used in early Japanese and Korean computing systems. This character is classified as a compatibility ideograph because it has the same semantic meaning and usage as its standard counterpart but differs in visual representation, typically never used in modern writing outside specialized contexts like historical or graphical interoperability.
