U+7A17 "稗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

稗

U+7A17 "稗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a logogram used in written Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, and it represents a type of grass or weed, specifically a barnyard grass or a millet-like plant that often grows among rice paddies and is considered a nuisance in agriculture. In a broader figurative sense, the character is also used in classical and modern East Asian texts to denote something that is trivial, insignificant, or of poor quality, much like the weed it names contrasts with cultivated crops. Its historical and literary usage can be found in idioms and writings, where it may imply superficiality or something that is not of genuine substance, such as in the phrase "稗官野史," referring to unofficial or anecdotal histories written by minor officials.
