Zhāng waterbird character

4099/4154

𫜂 is a character for a waterbird in Jianghuai Mandarin, a Mandarin dialect group spoken in eastern China. Its related form 𪅂 appears in an old Chinese rhyme dictionary's note about the Wu-region name for a “water chicken.”

What 𫜂 means

It names a waterbird in Jianghuai Mandarin. The reference entry gives the Mandarin reading zhāng and labels it a regional word; it does not identify a bird species.

The related form 𪅂 appears in the Guangyun, a Chinese pronunciation-and-rhyme dictionary compiled in 1007–1008. Its entry says people of Wu, in the lower Yangtze region, called 水雞 (“water chicken”), written 𪅂渠. That older record and the Jianghuai gloss both point to a broad waterbird name, not a precise species.
