Horse-appearance character

6052/6592

䮣 is a Chinese dictionary character describing a horse’s appearance. One traditional gloss pictures a yellow horse with a white tail. The recorded Mandarin readings are written in pinyin, a system for writing Mandarin sounds with Latin letters: sǎng and sāng; the marks indicate different tones, or syllable pitch patterns. A Chinese variant dictionary links 𩦌 to it.

What 䮣 means

It describes a horse’s appearance.

The Jiyun (《集韻》), a Song-era Chinese dictionary, records it in 騯䮣 and glosses the phrase as “the appearance of a horse.” The Kangxi Dictionary (《康熙字典》) gives another traditional gloss: a horse with a yellow coat and white tail.

Taiwan’s Ministry of Education character-variant dictionary notes, as of 2026, that 䮣 is not listed in Shuowen Jiezi (《說文解字》), an early Chinese character dictionary. For the pronunciation of 䮣, Chinese dictionaries give Mandarin pinyin readings sǎng and sāng; the marks show different syllable pitch patterns.

How to type 䮣?

Use Unicode hex input if your tool supports it, or search a Mandarin IME.

If your input method accepts Unicode hexadecimal entry, enter 4BA3 ; shortcuts vary by system. A Mandarin IME, a Chinese typing tool, may offer it under sǎng or sāng. Jitenon’s Japanese listing, as of 2026, shows no JIS X 0213 or Shift_JIS-2004 mapping, so workflows based on those older encodings may not expose it.

Why is 䮣 missing or drawn differently?

The font may omit it or draw a regional Han form.

As of 2026, Unicode’s CJK guidance describes regional differences in Han glyph outlines; its unsupported-character guidance explains why a character missing from a font may appear as a box. Jitenon also notes, as of 2026, that this character’s display can depend on the environment. A box can mean the font lacks a drawing even when the text is intact; compare U4BA3 if exact identity matters.

Why does 䮣 show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
