U+FA5E "" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+FA5E "" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# is a Han character classified under the CJK Compatibility Ideographs block, included in Unicode primarily to ensure round-trip compatibility with older East Asian character encoding standards. Its structure is a variant form, or z-variant, of the more common ideograph 祚, which is associated with meanings of blessing, happiness, or a throne. This specific glyph is rarely used in modern standard text and was encoded to preserve the exact representation of characters found in legacy character sets, such as those in Japanese or Chinese computing environments from the 1980s and 1990s.
