noun (plural: z-variants)
  1. (Unicode) a shape variant of a Han character, encoded for historical reasons.
Etymology: z (axis) + variant; from the three dimensions visualized for the character space. The x-axis separates characters by semantics (function and meaning, e.g. A from B), the y-axis separates them by their general form (abstract shape, e.g. A from a), and the z-axis by their actual shape (minor details such as typeface, e.g. a from a).
