U+79E0 "秠" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+79E0 "秠" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (Hanzi) that falls under the radical "禾" (grain/rice), representing a type of millet or specific grain, historically defined in classical Chinese dictionaries as a variety of millet with black husk and white kernel, or alternatively as a double-grained millet. This character is part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) unified ideographs block, encoded for digital representation across multiple East Asian languages, and it carries agricultural and historical significance in classical texts, though it is rarely used in modern everyday writing. Its traditional pronunciation in Mandarin is "pī" or "bǐ" depending on the context, and it appears in ancient works like the "Shuowen Jiezi" dictionary.
