Traditionally, this radical character is printed as 羽 and written as 羽.
In modern Chinese, both the standard printing form and writing form of this character have been altered to 羽, though the more traditional printing form 羽 is still seen in some Traditional Chinese publication.
In modern Japanese, the Kangxi form (old form) and the written form (new form) are encoded separately in JIS and Unihan (New 羽: U+7FBD; Old 羽: U+FA1E). The new form is used in jōyō kanji while the old form is used in hyōgai kanji, with the exception that in 曜, 耀 and 燿, the component 羽 is replaced by ヨヨ.
