Traditionally, this radical character is printed as {{Lang|ko|羽}} and written as {{Lang|zh-Hans|羽}}.

In modern Chinese, both the standard printing form and writing form of this character have been altered to {{Lang|zh-Hans|羽}}, though the more traditional printing form {{Lang|ko|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 {{Lang|ja|羽}}: U+7FBD; Old {{Lang|ja|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 {{Lang|ja|曜}}, {{Lang|ja|耀}} and {{Lang|ja|燿}}, the component {{Lang|ja|羽}} is replaced by {{Lang|ja|ヨヨ}}.
