Unicode Version 17.0
玫
U+73AB "玫" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character primarily used in the word "玫瑰" (méigui), meaning "rose." It is composed of the radical 王 (often called the "jade" radical) on the left, which relates to precious stones, and the phonetic component 文 on the right, contributing to its pronunciation. In traditional and simplified Chinese contexts, this character specifically refers to a type of gemstone called "rose quartz" or, more commonly, the rose flower itself, symbolizing romance and beauty in East Asian cultures. Its encoding in Unicode allows for consistent digital representation across various platforms and languages.
