U+FA6A "" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+FA6A "" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# is a compatibility ideograph from the CJK Compatibility Ideographs block, which was encoded to provide roundtrip mapping compatibility with legacy East Asian character set standards, such as those used in older Japanese or Korean systems. This particular character, though visually similar to the standard CJK Unified Ideograph for the Chinese character meaning "frequent" or "repeated" (U+6A6A), exists in the compatibility zone to preserve exact mappings from older encoding schemes where it was assigned a separate code point. In modern Unicode usage, it is generally considered a duplicate of its unified counterpart, and its primary purpose is to maintain data integrity when converting text from older legacy systems that did not use the unified character model.
