Chinese bird-name character

36801/42720

𨿀 is an old Chinese character for a bird name, recorded as a variant of 䳔. The broad “bird” gloss and the narrower “hundred-tongued bird” label belong to different pronunciations of 䳔, so the narrower one does not automatically describe 𨿀. A font without this glyph may show a missing-character box.

Text symbol

What 𨿀 means

It is a written variant of 䳔. By 100 CE, a Chinese character dictionary glossed 䳔 simply as “a bird”; by 1037, a Chinese pronunciation dictionary linked 𨿀 to 䳔 under the same pronunciation. A separate recorded pronunciation of 䳔 is glossed as “hundred-tongued bird,” so that narrower name should not be assigned automatically to 𨿀.
