CJK Compatibility Ideograph 2FA0F

528/542

鵧 represents 鵧, which appears in the traditional bird name 鵧鷑 for a small black bird. This extra code point preserves a round-trip mapping to Taiwan’s CNS 11643-1992 standard; normalization changes it back to 鵧.

Text symbol

What 鵧 means

The character behind it is 鵧.

In Taiwan Mandarin, 鵧 is read píng. The Kangxi Dictionary, a Chinese character reference completed in 1716, records 鵧 in 鵧鷑, a bird name glossed as a small black bird.

Unicode traces 鵧 to CNS 11643-1992 entry T4-626E (plane 4, position 62-6E).

Will normalization change 鵧?

Yes. It becomes 鵧.

All four Unicode normalization forms map U2FA0F to U9D67—from 鵧 to 鵧—so the original encoded form is lost.

Unicode also lists 鵧︀ (鵧 followed by invisible UFE00) as the standardized sequence requesting the variant glyph.

Questions people ask

1

Why does 鵧 show as a box on some devices?

Not every system ships a font for the CJK Compatibility Ideographs Supplement block. Where none is installed, the character shows as an empty box; adding a font such as Noto fixes it. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.
