U+FA1A "" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+FA1A "" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# is a compatibility ideograph derived from a Japanese industrial standard, intended to preserve the shape of a character used in legacy encoding systems rather than representing a unique or commonly used modern Chinese or Japanese character. It corresponds to the CJK Unified Ideograph U+7965 "祥", which means "auspicious" or "good fortune," but it exists in the Unicode standard specifically to ensure round-trip conversion compatibility between older character sets and modern text encoding. As a result, this character is rarely needed in contemporary writing and is primarily of interest for archival data processing or specialized typographic work where exact historical glyph shapes must be maintained.
