cjk compatibility ideograph-2f902

Compatibility form of 流

259/542

What 流 means is what 流 means: “flow” or “stream.” It preserves a Taiwan glyph distinction for conversion with CNS 11643, not a separate everyday word.

Text symbol

What 流 means

It maps to 流, its corresponding unified form.

All four Unicode normalization forms map 流 to 流. Unicode also defines 流 followed by UFE02, an invisible variation selector that requests the distinct glyph in supporting fonts. Taiwan’s CNS 11643-1992 lists it as T4-2D70 on plane 4; the supplement preserves such distinctions for round-trip conversion.

Technical and archival; ordinary text uses 流.

Normalization can replace 流 with 流.
