Since 鶚 is not commonly used in daily speech, it is more suitable for literary or formal contexts.

It can also be paired with other characters related to nature or animals when discussing wildlife.
Although 鶚 is not part of the HSK vocabulary, it can be related to HSK Level 3 and 4 words that deal with animals and nature. Students should focus on the context in which this character appears, such as literature and environmental discussions, to enhance their understanding.
