U+7A40 "穀" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+7A40 "穀" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a logographic character used in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean (CJK) languages, primarily representing the concept of grain, cereal, or crops as a general term for harvested food plants. Its basic meaning is often translated as "grain" or "corn" in English, and it appears in compounds like 穀物 (gǔwù, meaning "cereal" or "grain") and 穀類 (gǔlèi, meaning "grains" or "cereals"). The character combines the radical for rice or grain (禾, indicating harvest) with the phonetic component 殼 (shell or husk), reflecting the idea of husked or shelled edible seeds. In East Asian culture, 穀 is a key symbol of agriculture and sustenance, and it is also notable as one of the characters in the name of the ancient Chinese philosopher Mozi (墨子, Mòzǐ), though it is more commonly seen in agricultural and dietary contexts.
